Thanks! Much appreciated. Back to the drawing board, I think. Where are all the budget all-road frames? Only the 8bar Mitte V2 fits the bill (QR, 650b x 47, cheap) but it's just so...sensible.
OrkneyDullard-
Getting the chainstay dimples does seem to be an easy and cheap modification to give a CDF a bit more clearance there. Not sure when I’ll get round to getting it done on mine but I’ll report back. I just can’t really face stripping the bike down right now - I use it more than all my other bikes Put together

Measured them earlier with Calipers - came up at 46mm wide. Not much room either side at all so I think 47mm might be pushing it.
