    Chain tugs if you can fit them. You do have horizontal rear facing dropouts? The chain tugsrecommended here are the MKS ones sold by hubjub, though the last ime I looked they didn't have any in stock. Give them a week or two and they should be back in stock.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    No he may have track ends ! Track ends are not drop outs, as the wheel won't "drop out" of them ! :shock:

    Have you got decent grippy track nuts?
