Ah yes,

This can happen on some front wheel conversions (though mine didn’t need it).

Ok, what you will need to do is. Using a Dremel or similar tool, grind a few millimetres (1/8 inch or so) of the backs of the brake callipers. This will then provide enough clearance for the spokes. Don’t worry about the callipers, as there is plenty of spare alloy to grind off.

When you have done this mod, the wheel should fit just fine
