Ah, not sure but I thought my atlantis had a 135 rear wheel spacing. The 7 speed works great with it. Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: "Forrest" <[email protected]>

My Phil rear hub is not the Rivy kind (wish it were because I love
those cut-outs), but it now appears that this new IRD 7-spd freewheel
(replacing the Sachs 6-spd freewheel) is going to work fine with no
problems -- i.e., plenty of room back there for it in the 130mm
spacing, and wheel can remain dishless. Thanks for input from all!  --

I have a rivy /phil hub with a 7 speed, it works great on my atlantis. It's also a dishless wheel. I've built up two sets and they work fine so fuss no
muss.
