Hi, for xmas I got a new rear wheel. ENO + DX32. It is super sexy. I have a question though...
I have horizontal dropouts and use chain tugs. The axle bolt on the eno hub is 8mm (dia.) and the endcap has a 10mm shim+washer. So the endcap rests in the chain tug and doesn't contact the dropout (since the bolt is 8mm...).
It's hard to describe, I'm hoping some eno owners will know what I mean. I've contacted White Ind. and they are sending me some extra long bolts. Should I give this a go? Or should I dispense with the tugs? I like the microadjustment the tugs offer as well as the stability. How likely is it that I could find a 9mm long (dropout width), 8mm to 10mm shim?
here I've added some pics:
