Track nuts in drop outs question
Bike: old Fuji Allegro
Drops: semi-horizontal Chain: 1/8 inch Wipperman Chainring: 42t Superbe Cog: 16t/18t Drivetrain: fixed gear Questions: Is it dangerous to ride bike if track nuts are tightened down at open end of drop outs because chain length with 18t cog doesn't allow wheel to be pulled back? Should I add a half-link for safety's sake? Gratitude: Thanks! |
How close is it to the end?
|
Chances are if you are concerned, then it will be better to add a half link for piece of mind alone.

The track nut is nearly fully on the dropout. No significant (if any) overhang.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I think I'll add the half-link.
