As I understand it, Carla, the trick to brake alignment is the slope of the dropout, which Rivendell can give you, presuming it’s not propritary (I doubt it give a protractor could figure it out. Grin.). I’ll pm you a full sized pic of my frame if you’d like to show the concept to your builder.

I put a pic up in a post about an hour ago. I’m thinking the rear dropouts need to change and take the cable stops off. I probably need to look at the Quickbeam version. A local builder built it for me and he would make the changes. I would be doing rattle can until later on the touch ups. Any

Carla, Mark only swapped out the verticals dropouts for the track style Quickbeam dropouts. Had I been thinking it through better I would have also had him remove the derailire cable guides and downtube shifting posts. But those make good reminders of where he’s come from, just like all my
