If it's a CAAD5 and not a Capo you can only really make use of the mid to rear end of the dropout once you go 25c or over. At least on mine i couldn't slide the a 25c (chubby GP 4000) wheel in any further than the midpoint without jamming on the brake bridge. It made it tricky to get the gearing setup as well so it might be that's where the wheel ends up with his gearing. I couldn't get my chain tug to work that far back.
From memory i had a little more room to manoeuvre on my Capo.
