Thanks for backing me up W&W it was nuts!

Kitty I fell 3 times on ice and snow this past week, so you’re not alone.

Custis all clear this morning except the Spout Run overpass and the Rosslyn Monolith

It’s not the frame spacing between the dropouts, it’s the space of the dropout slot itself. The thing has those weird forward facing horizontal dropouts, and it seems the one on the drive side got dinged in shipping or something, so that it’s a little too narrow to fit the axle.

Got it, that sucks. If I recall the dropouts are painted, so you wouldn’t want to file it down right?. Sound like you need mini-jaws-of-life to spread the dropout slots.

Everyone’s building up bikes this weekend! I sized up the Straggler frame and hunkered down to build it up, only to find that the drive side dropout is compressed (bent!) by a millimeter! I can’t get the rear wheel in. Unless someone knows how I can reliably bend it back myself, I’ll have to wait and finish the build after the LBS reopens.

+1 what Hans said – can you just force the rear triangle apart? I’ve had steel frames that I had to spread the dropouts to fit the rear wheel, just using hands – not tools.

My snow day project, building a geared CX from mostly leftover parts. I thought I could reuse the cables, but too short and need all new cables and housings.
