My bad (math)
The shims Phil needs are; two 260mm, one 265mm, and one 275mm.
He has in exchange; two 270mm, one 255mm, and one 285mm.
Thx Rick

No problem Wildcat! Randy told me you had somethings going on right now and it might take you a while to get back to me. I have a bike shop not far from my house that deals with nothing but old school metric bikes. I don't use them often because their proud of their stuff, but their price on the shims was the same as what i could get them anywhere else and they had what I needed in stock. However thanks so much for replying. RickRev.Rick
