I expect it will work, but it looks as if you need an offset 130. Phil will
do that for you for a small fee, plus postage: IIRC, $10.

When I switched the Matthews to a Logic, I ordered a symmetrical 130 and
found myself in your situation, I sent it back for offsetting, and wala,
the problem, as Inspector Clouseau would say, is solve'd.

Actually, I could have, after all, used a 127.5 with arms skimming the
stays by 3 mm; if you have an offset 127.5, I'll trade for my offset 130.
My right arm skims, but the left has free air left over.

Patrick Moore, whose widest Phil was a custom 145 symmetrical for using a
Pro 5 Vis on a frame that took 60s with fenders and room for mud.
