I'm building up my old Klein Quantum frame with used Campy 10s components. First thing I ran
into is rear dropout spacing is narrower than the cassette hub (yes, frame is of freewheel
vintage). Is there any problem with stretching the stays to accomodate the wider cassette? I'd
be more comfortable with this on a steel frame, but thought I'd ask the experts here when it
comes to Aluminum.
The other thing I've noticed is the alignment of the chainrings when mounted - they seem to be
farther out, and not centered on the cassette. Related to this is the front der. a/b adjustment are
to the extreems to accomodate the more outward position of the chainrings on the spindle. The BB is
pressed into the frame, and is Campy taper circa late 80's early 90's.
I'm worried this chainring/der/cassette alignment situation may be a deal breaker for my trusty old
Klein. Any advice?
