Hi Guys,

About the adjustable rear dropouts. I have always thought the rear dropouts were designed to alter the c to c length of the wheels. The longer setting was for stage races and the shorter length was for criteriums. Is this so?

I must admit to lusting after a compact pro in the mid 90's. The colour is unique and most attractive. Your bikes are fantastic.
