I was talking to CowardlyDuck and he put me onto your thread. I am putting together a Vector with a HS4065, and to start with I had a 6 speed freewheel, but that leaves me with a ridiculous amount of space (as the dropouts are so widely spaced on the vector), so I had a million washers on either side.
I noticed at the start of your thread, you seem to nicely fit a 10spd freewheel in there. I realise I can get a 10 spd freewheel from Glow-worm cycles, but even with a 10spd freewheel I would have thought you still would have needed a bunch of spacer washers, did you put spacer washers on the disc side? I was just surprised that you seemed to fit a 10spd in there with no spacer washers. Did you have to tighten the nuts to the point it was bending the swing arm in a bit? Maybe I am just being too much of a pussy in tightening the nuts. Just wanted to check that you were putting a HS4065 in with no spacer washers, and whether you needed to tighten the swing arm a lot.
Cheers, Phil.
Hey Phil
I moved one of the drop out clamp plates to the inside this also kept the wheel centres btw both drop out clamp plates can go inside or out side of the swing arm.
Cheers Kiwi
