Super easy to install and seem great so far. Using the Velobike chain tensioner with them which is working well too.
Argon18 Electron Pro RIO Dropouts
I've always struggled with the stock chain tensioner and dropouts on my RIO. They ended up costing me 85 CAD dollars as I stripped the axle on my rear wheel twice. Buy the velobike dropouts before this happens and consider them only costing $60. The fact that I can change my wheel twice as fast is worth $60. Never again will I miss track time because of being unable to remove my wheel, so they were basically free!
Nicest dropouts ever made by anyone ever. Plus they look cool
I always felt the weakest part of the Argon 18 Rio Track bike (Rio) was the quality of the rear dropouts. Velobike replacements are sturdy and well designed. Early days, but I have great confidence these will last much better than the originals.
Yes, I do use a torque wrench and love products that do what they are meant to do.
