ADJUSTING THE WHYTE 19 TRAIL DROPOUT SYSTEM (Continued).
To adjust the Dropout Plates (3,6,7), first secure the bike into a work stand. Next, using
the 5mm Allen Key, loosen off the RH and LH top M6x14mm Socket head Cap Screws (5a)
by one turn only. Next Remove the three RH and three LH lower M6 x 14 Screws (5b) from
the bike, taking care to collect both Dropout M6 Washer Plates (8). You will now be able to
rotate both the RH and LH Dropout Plates (3,6,7) around the top pivot screw (5a) to adjust
the chain stay lengths. Align the chosen Laser Etch marks on the Dropout Plates (3,6,7)
with the edge of the mainframe dropouts (1,2) and re-assemble the Dropout M6 Washer
Plates (8) and the three M6 x 14mm Socket Head Screws (5b). Before finally tightening all
M6 Fasteners, double check the LH and RH dropout plate (3,6,7) Laser Etch marks corre-
spond correctly to each other, and that the rear wheel is aligned properly in the frame.
Finally tighten Screws (5a and 5b) to the torque setting described in Section 6.0
