It will come with 126mm rear spacing and probably a 6 or 7 spd freewheel. It can easily be spread to 130 and used with a 9 spd cassette if you want. It will probably have 57 mm single pivot brakes and good tire/fender clearance for 32 mm tires. My wife's has an unusual seat post size - 26.8 if I remember correctly, but I think PJW still carries them if you want to upgrade. The original had limited range. Go for it.
