Any design that requires that use of a specific component rubs me the wrong way. Case in point….I’ve got a 1980’s bike with vertical drop outs. It originally came with 20c tires. I quickly switched to 23c after a bunch of flats. Now I run 25s on it and have to be careful that I don’t use a “wide” 25 or the tires won’t fit. Now if they had just used horizontal dropouts, I’d have some flexibility.
