No troll-the dropout is very thick/with the hanger on the outside-even thicker. The bolt (going thru the dr to the hanger is very long/too long to file-will have to be cut. It is however long enough to use on the orig hanger-if I tap the hanger. The wheel is a 5 speed-the skewer isn't that long. (can get a longer one) The washers I was talking about were to fasten the dr bolt (temporary) to see if it would function. By reverseing the adj screw-I see no need to file a flat stop on the orig hanger-(for direct bolt on) It will look cleaner and function better directly attached.....any clearer?
