Hurdy Gurdy is a nifty device that keeps your rear wheel from slipping forward in the dropout under pedal load. It’s designed for semi-horizontal front-loading dropouts, like those found on the Cross-Check, and will also work on many similar dropouts.
Especially useful when converting to single speed or fixed gear on older road frames.
Hurdy Gurdy is investment cast of stainless steel for durability. Its two axle holes allow for a wide variety of fore/aft wheel positions. It will work with standard QRs, bolted axles, and nutted axles up to 10mm.
