One of the many advantages of converting a horizontal dropout road frame to FG use is that race frames were
designed for fast fault-free wheel changes "back when". Install the rear wheel in the correct position once, set the dropout adjusters screws and every wheel change w/ that spec is centered, and in the case of a FG properly chain tensioned.
