Remco Member Jan 14, 2009 #17 you could also weld like a plate on the dropouts and make them fit in the triangle thingy's. So the dropouts are a bit thicker as usually.

C Chris Picone Member Jan 14, 2009 #20 I remember someone once wanted to try replacing the dropouts with straight ones then reinforcing the new ones, I don't think it would work. The angle reinforcement probably won't do anything
