bolt on dropouts are not totally uncommon but it will come down to hardware. i would probobly save the hastle and go with an ENO hub or mail it to mr milec for new alu dropouts

Thanks for the info- had heard the dropouts were steel, but I was suspicious tbh... I suppose it should be fine without brazing anyway.
If this does become the new Gorgeous Baby Blue, I'll need an appropriate moniker (or should we just call it "wait what?")

I will be amazed if this doesn't become a new meme a la Gorgeous Baby Blue, and incredibly impressed if it looks good and the track ends don't snap off.
Good luck to you sir, you're pushing the envelope.
ps. If the frame is aluminium then the existing drop outs are 100% aluminium, you can't braise to it.
