Building frame 4, my first using eRichie's lugs (newvex, with newvex crown and shell, to be precise) with PegoRichie. Compared to my experiences with Llewelyn lugs that I had used previously, the fit is beyond tight, and I find myself having to hog/file out the lug & shell sockets to achieve the desired fit with the tube - filing what I feel is quite a bit when compare to some other lugsets that I've used. The tube end is cleaned and hit with abrasive cloth. Is this the usual experience, or am I missing something?
Thanks,
Pete
