Are you managing to get away with not using a pin in the drive side dropout (ps these dropouts are so shit - worst thing about the frame in my mind)? I find the wheel slips forward in mine if i lay down too much power.
Jaaamie-
Same on the cc, I've managed to bend the drive side pin on mine due to wheel slip.
I fixed it with better skewers. Hope steel wounded up so tight that it takes a tire leaver to undo. -
Shimano XT hubs and skewers.
Worst thing about the dropouts is that I can fit 29x2.0" Conti RaceKing semi-knobble tyres between the status, but have to drop pressure to get the wheel out.

End of May was the 4 year anniversary of getting the frame at about 11pm for coming DFL in that year's Gravel Dash 100, riding the whole thing singlespeed and rigid with an Ortlieb messenger having decided to do it on a whim and ended up on the last hillside waiting for an ambulance as one of Charlie's then-mechanics washed out on chalk and broke his femur.
