Hi, i'm sending my frame away for repair. I did a search and some people have mentioned to put something inbetween dropouts to stop them getting pushed togther. Any ideas on what to use?
I'm going to wrap it in a blanket, then put it it a card box. is that ok?

go to your LBS and see if they have a spare box and spare drop out spacers.
if not a bit of threaded bar and 4 nuts and 4 washers. work it out"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Instaed i cut i bit of wood to fit nicely where the rear QR should go... hope that works!
