Hello. I'm new here ( Name is Greg). I want to buy a GT2A frame from Bikeengines.com. for a build using a shift kit and 3-spd internal hub gearing. The frames come in 135 and 150mm width between the dropouts. It would be nice to have the extra width in order to fit a wider tire, but I'm not finding any hubs that are 150mm wide at the nuts. I've seen some units that are 130-135mm which would be fine with the narrower frame and one unit that is 170mm (I think that one is for fat tire bikes). That hub is obviously going to be too wide for even the wider frame option. Does anyone know of a good sturdy 3-spd hub close to 150mm width? Bending the stays out to accommodate the 170mm hub seems like a bad idea to me. Your thoughts?
