Others already have answered, but to reaffirm from the manufacturer: Both
spindles – 110 and 113 – will work fine. With 135 mm spacing, your
chainline will be 2.5 mm further outward on the rear, so you can use a
longer spindle to move the front outward as well – unless you ride in the
big ring
It's the extra medium 53.5 from the second batch.
