The rear dropouts on my bike look non-standard because I hacked off all the unnecessary "track-style" dropout that I didn't need and then made lightening holes - to save a few grams. There's only one Xootr dropout and the front of yours is the same as mine. The adapters will accurately move the axle back 5mm and unless your tires are bigger than mine it will give you the clearance you need. If not get the model that gives you 20mm instead.
