Combining form and function, Waterford's proprietary dropouts offer riders the ultimate in dropout design.
Investment cast in stainless steel, these dropouts do not corrode and, unlike chrome finishes, do not peel.
The vertical dropout design holds the axle in place regardless of the accelerating forces created in sprints or heavy climbing.
The sculpted design also serves to stiffen the dropout for pedaling efficiency.
Stainless steel's high ductility (compared to chromoly) means that these dropouts resist cracking. Many bends caused by crashes can be re-aligned without the need for replacement.
These dropouts are available with cast-in eyelets - that will never break off.
