  • If speccing a frame with 12mm rear dropouts, which thread pitch would be best to choose?
    Or which is the most common/likely to last?
    I can see 1.0, 1.5, 1.75mm at least.

  • 2 dropouts will probably be enough.

  • which thread pitch would be best to choose?

    Whichever your frame builder can get. If you're worried, get a couple of spare through bolts now, although I suspect that it's the OLN dimension which will trip up future proofing rather than the thread pitch.

    If I'm designing for bikes with a free hand, I prefer 1.0mm pitch for everything from M6 up.
