Does anyone know how to make one of these? I found some instructions on the internet ages ago but cannot locate them now. I have a whole bundle of hangers for a specific bike and I recken I can cut/grind one down to make a universal hanger. I have found a bespoke one on a site in the US but although htey are only $15 the postage is massive.

Cheers

In all of my searches I never came across the CRC option. Still it is £15 which is a bit steep.

don't know about making them, but BETD emergency hanger is £8. i have a few funny shaped ones that i keep as spares which i use as emergency hangers- just allows me to keep a few gears to get home.

Gentlemen,

Thank you. I will be ordering a couple from XC Racer and squirreling them in my kit somewhere.
