Rear axle dropout spacer for Surly Wednesday

prusaprinters

<p>If you want to run tires with larger diameter than stock 26x3.6” on Surly Wednesday, you need to shift the rear axle a bit backwards in the rear dropout, to gain extra clearance for larger tires.&nbsp;</p><p>You have three options:</p><ol><li><strong>Move the axle back in the dropout</strong> and tighten extra hard. In my case, the axle usually slips forward when pedaling harder = not usable.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Buy Surly Monkey Nuts</strong>. One piece on the drive side should suffice, but a pair is better. Quite costly, but surly safest bet.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Print a pair of these spacers</strong>. I’ve been running them year long on 29x3.0” and 26x4.6”. Both summer and winter. No troubles yet.&nbsp;</li></ol><p>Printed from Prusament PETG, 40 % infill, 2 perimeters, 4 bottom &amp; 5 top players, 0.16 mm layer height &nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
