Hi Charles,
I was wondering about the age. Is the serial number (3035) what gave it awa y?
I contacted the seller to ask about the 130 rear spacing, and he told me it had been cold-set to 130 for modern wheels. I seem to recall e-Richie o r someone else warning about that in regards to chain alignment. I've do ne it on other bikes with success, but never on one as nice as a Sachs. Wonder if it would need long-reach calipers too?
I'm tempted - it's exactly my size...
