Dropouts and hangers

The mechanic setting up my crankset reported the derailleur side drop out was bent, probably in shipping. I took this opportunity to order special Rohloff dropouts from (https://www.paragonmachineworks.com/ Paragon Machine Works). They are beautiful. According to (https://www.mtbr.com/threads/info-on-soma-tange-ird-adjustable-dropouts-analog-juice-b-side-wolverine.962971/ this MTBR link) I can use any (https://www.paragonmachineworks.com/hangers-inserts/inserts.html Paragon Machine Works sliding dropout inserts) with the Soma Interloc/Tange dropouts. This is good information.

The (https://www.paragonmachineworks.com/faqs/adjustable-dropouts.html Paragon website has excellent technical information), the Tange and Interloc sites have nothing. Soma has the specs I needed to start learning and ordering parts.

The ones I got have no derailleur hanger on the right (cleaner look) and a deep dropout on the left that accepts the Rohloff mounting plate that I had to order from ENGLAND.

Hardware

qty usage size 4 Dropouts M8 x 1.25 x 18 mm

racks and fenders

water bottles - glass filled fiberglass, 100 for $17 tensile strength 27,000 - these are to fill the extra holes and be impervious to water and very light. 6 in the frame and 6 in the fork


M5 x 10mm PMW $4.45 MC grade2 socket head $3.19, cap head grade 5 $11

Ti screws can take higher torque, which makes them good for the dropout hangers.

There are no button head screws from McMaster. SS with tensile strength 70,000 would be $11 for 25 screws. Hex head (which I can't use) Ti are $14 each and tensile strength 130,000

Ever had a critical SS screw break off? Hmm I have... Ti is far stronger...
