Why does the eliminator have horizontal dropouts? How do you run gears on it? Can you run axle-mounting derailleurs such as saint on it? My guess is no, but this bike kinda puzzles me. Anybody ride these frames?

Adjustable wheel base.

How do you run gears on it?

Same way you do a verticle drop out

Can you run axle-mounting derailleurs such as saint on it? My guess is no, but this bike kinda puzzles me.

No idea. Never actually held a Saint derailer in my hand before...or seen one upclose and in use.

Anybody ride these frames?

I don't but I ride a Rotec DH and for my model it came with Horizontal drop outs. I run my axel as far forward as possible because my bike is so long so I don't really adjust my wheelbase.

Also note that is not the current offering from Azonic. The current model is the Eliminator II and has vertical dropouts and a 12mm thru axle option...
