I have these: http://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-...HAINSTAYS.html and these: http://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-...-IN-STYLE.html

The plugs on the dropout don't fit into the chainstay. The obvious solution seems to be cutting the tapered end of the chainstay until the plug fits, but I'm not sure excactly how they set up the butts on it. Anyone know how quickly it thins?

Thanks,
Jim
