room in the original drop out to run fixed
Are you confusing his frame with the TT version perhaps? His frame had pretty much vertical dropouts with no room to move the wheel. For this to work you pretty much have to rely on magic ratio.
Not saying that selling it wasn't a better idea than chopping it, but yeah.
I cannot understand why you go all the way as you actually got a small amount of room in the original drop out to run fixed with a half link if needed.
Basically you waste more money on making it weaker.
