My Sirius Pipedream frame arrived last week and runs paragon style sliding dropouts.

I plan to run the frame SS/Alfine so do not immediately require the gear hanger. Rather than chop it off I wanted to see about getting a spare dropout that Does not have a hanger.

PD say that unless demand s good they won't be getting in any so I am on the hunt!

All help/directions most welcome 😆

Why not get them direct from Paragon?

Neither Ceeway or Paragon dropouts will work I'm afraid. They both have a continuous 'two in one' bolt mounting as opposed to two independent mounting bosses.

Mark, fancy getting in touch with BETD Goldtec with me and maybe a few others? Pipedream can't seem to get their heads around the fact that people are attracted to sliding dropout frames because they want to run SS or IGH, not derailleurs!

Adjustable chainstays anybody? No, thought not!

Stuart. What's up buddy? Don't you feel the need to reply to your emails now the frame's been delivered?
