so, i don't know if anyone out there has noticed, but sometimes raleigh drop outs (dropouts?) are not symmetrical. the one on the drive side isn't as long as the one on the non-drive side.
i've got a chain tensioner, but i'd rather not have one.
has anyone got any experience of drilling them out to the same length? so i don't need to do the tensioner thing anymore?
i'm imagining drills and dremels. and measure twice cut once.
any info would be grand.
