Yep, works like a charm. Note that those with the shorter horizontal dropouts (and the long ones as well) can squeeze a little more capacity by removing the adjusting screws.

> An old time repairman just showed me an unexpected positive feature of
horizontal drop
outs that I was unaware of. I had been trying to get some alpine gearing in a
Colnago
with horizontal drop outs that I bought recently. I came up with a NIB Sachs
12-30
freewheel, but doubted I could use it with my Super Record Derailleur. This
guy moved the
rear wheel back to the rear, added two links to my chain and Voila...everything
seems to
work fine. A little noisy if one goes big chainwheel to biggest gear, but I
avoid this
situation, anyway. This is probably old news to you pros out there, but I sure
was
impressed!
