I've got through three of these bleedin things in a year. The ones from canyon seem to be like plasticine. I've only ever bent them by my bike falling over at walking pace or at a standstill.
Anyone know if any other manufacturers would be stronger?
I know about this website: [url= http://gearmechhanger.com/epages/950001649.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950001649/Products/D250&ChangeAction=SelectSubProduct ]Gearmechhanger.com[/url]
Any others?
i have used them after i kept braking the canyon ones, not had to replace it yet (6 months) so gets my vote
I'll try them out cheers
The Canyon ones are brittle diecast. I got CNC alloy ones from BETD; much better.
Had my Nerve AM for 15 months now and never bent a mech hanger yet. I must be lucky?
^^not riding hard enough then 😉
i bent one on a big off and bike landed on the mech. i snapped an other two on rocky climbs tho! broke the mechs as well!

you dont want a cast iron made hanger what isnt going to break as thats its job, to break and stop your mech from braking.
just change to a short cage and you wont have half as many 😉
