  1. ok i wanna buy a uni that has 71mm center-flange to center flange
    distance and a flange diameter of 66mm. Will i be able to switch out
    the hub with a hub that is 75mm center-flange to center-flange and a
    flange diameter of 65.5mm????
    (without getting new spokes)

  3. Most likely it will work, if the spokes are sticking out of the nipples
    then you might want to grind them down.

  5. but the flange spacing makes a difference as well will i run out of
    threading on the spokes?

    i doubt it... if not ... what size rim are you lacing?
    as long as its not a wacko size (or 19"😉 you shouldn't have a problem
    going to your LBS and getting some new spokes

  8. hmm
    5mm to the side ... .5 mm shorter
    ~7.5"spokes

    make a trianglefrom the center of the hub to the axle area... then to
    the rim, don't worry about the flange distance, it is probably exactly
    the same and figure out the difference in hypotenuses
    theres if its smaller than .15 or so inches you should be fine
