I thought they were all the same, but I've just found my new wheel reluctant to go into the dropouts. Could I have a mismatch on my hands?

The short answer is yes. Different lengths and diameters are available. What hub is it for?

Thanks for getting back. I've been out filing the dropouts <eek smiley>. Just a bit. Seems ok now...still tight, but workable. Mainly wanted to know I wasn't losing my mind...
