Thanks PastorBob!!! That's very generous!! Sorry my link is bad; I'll fix it when I get home.

However my rd screws in to the drop out w/o a hanger. I'll be sure to post a pic of the drop out.

BBM...thanks for the suggestion.

I was thinking Huret because of the supposed French threading. Do either of you know if Raleigh used that threading on the bikes with Simplex components?
