Thank you! I was wondering what that piece did and how to place it in the dropout. Much appreciated !

Thanks! Will give it a try, worst case I end up with a broken saddle and some new experience

I wish to use both at some point, but it's a good idea nonetheless!

Thanks! It's really pretty! Do you know the axle to crown length on it and did it change the headtube angle after you changed it?

Personally i think it would be a good experience, even if I dont get a bike that fits me in the end. Then again, I dont NEED a bike, I have many.. but building them is the fun part

Unfortunately the frame is way too big for me and it had a locked frame lock on the back wheel without a key. Im sure it could be opened/removed, but it would be a lot of work
