Yup, those are replaceable dropouts. The plate that is connected by those three allen screws should come off.
I'm not sure why you would want to replace them with trackends though. The adjustability of moving the dropout should take care of chain tension. Plus, since it is a vertical dropout, you don't have to worry about axle slip.
oh! I didnt notice that you can slide the dropout aswell..the perfect bike :)

See, that's why you never ask quesitons about e-bay bikes you actually want to buy on this forum. Soon everybody knows and then they're trying to out bid you. Silence and mystery rule the day.
thats ok. I am not going to bid on this one because i never bid on articles with
reserve on them.

Either that or you don't include a link to ebay pic (instead of copying the image to a someplace else).

I wonder why they say that it is so rare. I can get one out of excel sports fairly easy...

because the seller is a moron. thats why he put a reseve on it aswell.
oh and look how he is saying that the headset and BB will cost extra. some
fantasy price that he will pull out of his ass in the end or something.
