Angle grinder time :-0

ED209:
So... I know I'm not Sawzall but I get urges like any man... and I've got some new school 13mm axle wheels and I'm going to make them fit into my GT Vertigo :-)

So ... should I be shaving a bit off the drop outs and forks... or flattern off the axles a bit?

Its not gonna need much as the drop outs are already 10mm wide... but is there anything else I need to remember before getting busy with the grinder.

FEAR ME.

( Its maybe a good time to mention that I once drilled my own c o c k  :buck2: )

and, to get back to the question... normal axles get a bit bent... so need bigger axles  :daumenhoch:

Go for flats on the axle you can always get a new axle...  you need to keep the land on the dropouts to stop the breaking  :daumenhoch:
