I am planning on running up to Frisco next Saturday, the 15th. Can pay cash or perhaps trade the 650s I have on now if someone's interested. I was under the impression that 559s "naturally" came with 135s...??? 559s do, but if you're replacing 571s, you need a road rear hub instead of the MTB rear hub, hence the request for the 130 mm OLD instead of the 135. I'm still wondering how he plans to stop the beast after moving the braking surface 6mm away from the pads. Most sidepull calipers don't have that much range in their adjustment, and most bikes that run 571s don't use linear pull brakes.
