    I'm not a fan of stainless for track dropouts. The surface is too hard. You need something that the axle nuts can bite into. Of course I'm talking about standing start track bikes, not hippiefixtertwat superbling coffee shop bikes :)

    That's what the adjuster screws are for - hippiefixertwats can't do track nuts up very tight anyway
