    Just use several washers to space out 5mm, worked fine on mine.

    It doesn't effect the geometry of the pegs too much, does it?

    is it the 2 - 5mm spacer on the brake side ? rearset into frame , do you have issue with the bolt as I fitted gilles to mine and the brake switch was catching the bolt , so I doubled the 2 spacers up to 10mm and put a flat ended bolt in and it was fine.
