Right Dropout

9898-4235

The bikes are equipped with one left and two right dropouts

(with and without the derailleur hanger tab). After-Market

dropouts are offered with the built-in derailleur hanger only

and can be used with gears or as a single-speed dropout.

Install the left and right dropouts. The threaded steel backing

plates are side-specific and must match the correct side dropouts.

Do not tighten the dropout bolts yet, leave them 1/4 turn loose.

NOTE: Make sure the bolt threads and washers are greased.

Install the rear wheel in the loose dropouts. Tightening the

quick-release will self-align the wheel and dropouts.

Install the disc brake.
