| Feb 17 at 10:47 | comment | added | WornChain | I'm still not sure how it is meant. Is it a "bonus" as in "it will even fit 140mm" or is it a limitation as in "can't handle anything larger" as suggested by the answer from Warren? My immediate thinking was like Warren, but I'm not totally convinced as you can see from my comments. | |

I'm 99% certain it deals with preventing caliper interference with the hub or spokes and nothing else. It's checked as compatible for almost every wheel except a very small handful. | |
