Edit: ~~1" threaded~~ 1 1/8" threaded, @Cokiya is right.

No derauiller hanger

Can you elaborate? I see a rear derailleur hanger in the pictures.

Did you mean 'no seatpost collar'?

boomboom

You're right about the seatpost collar.

That bit on the end of the frame isn't threaded, so you'd need some sort of nut to hold a rear mech on I suppose.

Like this?

EDIT: I Ron Burgundied myself. It's not really a question, this is what you need to sort that.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
