A.D.S - Adjustable Dropout System

An Identiti innovation feature on our frames that allows the rider to horizontally move the rear axle position to set chain tension, which is a real bonus if you are running single speed or perhaps a Rohloff Speedhub.

Not only is this simple and secure using the integral threaded chain tugs, but as the axle moves, so does the disc mount and the gear hanger - keeping everything in perfect line all of the time.

Furthermore, as the dropouts themselves are almost vertical, there is no risk of wheel torque slippage in the dropout under heavy load - which means you can even use QR skewers on a Single Speed set-up. Nor do you have to consider removing the disk brake caliper if you are removing the wheel, as the wheel comes out down and forwards, not backwards.

Finally, because removing the wheel doesn't require any messing with the chain tension adjustment, when you fit the wheel back in - it goes back in perfect chain tension just as it was before you removed it!

A.D.S. works perfectly with a derailleur or hub gears, or no gears.

NOW..it's up to the rider!

Bonus point for the Identiti ADS is that all of the' vulnerable'' parts of the dropout (gear hanger, disc mounts, axle slots, main fixing bolts threads etc.) are all part of the ADS dropouts - and therefore, easily replaced in event of a problem.

 

Innovative S-24 ADS option

This tweaked version of the ADS plates, effectively moves the rear axle forwards by a huge 35mm - giving a 26" wheel based frame effectively the same backend as a 24" specific frame.

NOW you can truly experience 24" specific handling - without the limitation of having to stick with 24" wheels forever.

Dropouts available in 10m with a gear hanger, or 14mm singlespeed.

So if you want to go 24" specific or change axle size - you don't need a new frame, just change your ADS plates!

 

NEW Rohloff Speedhub dropouts

Tweaked version of the original ADS dropouts - with a reinforced longer Left hand jaw to accept Rohloff OEM axle plates and a neat non-hanger right hand jaw.

This set allows you to fit a Rohloff Speedhub in conjuction with Rohloff OEM axle plates - therefore avoiding the need to use Torque arms or Speed bones.

Thus creating a VERY neat and economic Speedhub set-up.

Rohloff ADS plates are compatible with all current Identiti ADS frames.
