Is it me or the mudguard mount hole is bigger than the rack mount?
One of the mounts (assuming you are talking about the rear dropouts) comes already with the Ritchey dropout, the other one is an addition.
They look of a different size but threads are identical.
The top one is the Ritchey one and is the stronger one (rack)
The bottom one is the very slightly smaller (outer diameter) and meant for the mudguards.Winston said he has been using these Ritchey dropout for as long as they are available, and he never seen one break. I once had a split dropout (OK it was a budget shitty bike) so I was sensible to his point... Solid is important to me...

Those forks look so much better than the last time I saw them! Head tube badge looks ace too.
