[Closed] Convert slot drop out to geared, adaptor?

dmr used to 'do' a chain tug with a gear hanger on, try googling them/that.

An easy DIY bodge, not a spoon in sight 😎

I had ideas for an improved version but not been riding it recently.

oooh, get you mr 'factory tweaks', you even drilled it out Al. 😀
If you are ok with the chainstay length that is a much simpler way than the dmr one.

You can still move the wheel about in the stay, why anyone would bother on a cross bike is beyond me - would shortening it make it quicker in the corners or some guff?

I tried the DMR ones but removing the wheel was even more of a faff than normal.

You can still move the wheel about in the stay,

If i used it with the axle in the middle or back of the slot, my awesum turbo thighs would overcome a qr and have that wheel forward/wonky at the first sign of a hill. 8)

I had similar to dmr ones on a commencal once, they were indeed a royal faff to remove the wheel. Mind you, my mate's slotty dropout scandal with gears (basically like Al's mod but already built into the frame) is a bit of a faff too even without tuggy bits.

Al I like your bodge. But for 17.99 its less effort to buy the dmr...

I could make you a CF one?
