OK, I understand what you're saying. BTW, I'm index shifting
(heresy!) and I seem to have it dialed in and shifting fine. I will
consider spacers. Thanks for the info. Steve

I used a pair of 130 mm Shimano 105 hubs in a 135 spaced frame by
adding 2 mm of spacers to each side of the axle. No re-dishing was
needed, it worked fine. There's a bit less axle in the dropout but

I did this on a 135mm frame I have making the 130mm rear hub I used a
133mm. This is exactly what the Surly Crosscheck was advertised to be
able to do with its 132.5 mm spacing.fit either size axle. Chrome
moly steel bends quite a bit before it stays bent ( no pun intended )
so I would add spa
