Thanks for getting back to me. Took frame and wheels to Evans (where I got the wheels from), and they got them to fit. Essentially 'wedging' the forks over the axle got the wheels to fit. Not so much technical 'cold-setting', as there was only a few mm in it! Thanks, Andy

Ah, thanks. I'm off to Evans tonight to see a man in a workshop, so let's see how that goes! Thanks again all.

Yeah, as I say; rear: 125 or 126mm; front 90mm.

Thanks Alan. I bought some Charge wheels, though the fit doesn't work for some reason. I measured my frame spacing - it's 125/126mm. As the Charges were 120mm that must be why they didn't fit. Do you know if the new wheels could just be spaced out differently to accommodate?

Hey, I wonder if you could help me? I've got a 1987 Raleigh Record Sprint, and am looking to upgrade the wheels. I think they're originally the same as yours. What wheels did you change to? Thanks! Andy

I bought Charge Dish Wheelset from Evans, and that wasn't the right size (700c with 120mm spacing). Any idea of the spacing i'm looking for? I'm a newbie, so please don't hate me ;-) Thanks Andy

I bought a 1987 Raleigh Record Sprint from eBay a month or so back with intentions of rebuilding this with modern parts. More an exercise in getting to know bikes than anything else. I've bought Charge Dish Wheels (available at Evans) but find they don't fit. It seems the forks are too narrow...
