HELP with Vertical Dropouts!

Posted on
  • Hi,

    I am planning to acquire a frame for a good price but it has vertical dropouts and I am not sure whether this problem can be solved if I want to make it fixie (not ss).

    It am not an expert at all so if it is very complicated for the building process and also it is less safety, I prefer to go for another frame as I haven´t bought it yet.

    I leave you a couple of pictures and thank sin advance for your help.

    Should I or shouldn´t I go for a vertical dropouts' frame?

  • go for a track frame or something with horizontal dropouts, or you would need something like a white industries eno rear hub

  • go for a track frame

    This.

    There are tons around nowadays, and they're no longer expensive. Why faff about trying to bodge something?
