Anyone have any issues with the rear hub fitting? As soon as i put in the axle the wheel gets offset....and doesnt fit right....im pissed.
Ya the alignment slot thing at the drop out is to small to fit all hubs without modifying. I had to grind down the hub body on my brothers Formula hub to get it to fit. Apparently Specialized has said if you grind out the drop out they will warranty the part later in season with a better fitting part, but I'd check with your dealer before moding the frame.

why having taken a medium or small size if it's to place the seat so high and the pivot of the fork ?

Did you grind down your hub or the frame? Picking up my frame today, will find out if Saint hubs fit or not(fingers crossed). the Saint hubs look narrower at the mounting surface than the Formulas so I hope they'll fit.
