I am a complete newbie and hope someone can help me.
I have a Giant Boulder MTB. The Rear Mechanism has snapped off.. The part is a Acera Shimano.
The actual part is fine,, It's just the part where it connects to the frame has snapped. It cannot be welded as the actual bit thats broken is Aluminium.
I will add a picture below. As you can see the bit that has snapped can easily be replaced but all I can find on the new and Ebay is the whole mechanism without the actual silver bit I need.. On the bit that has snapped all it says on it is the number 7
Does anyone know where I can buy just this piece or if I have to buy the whole thing again? Where can I get it with the bit I need thats snapped..
Hope this isnt too confusing

The bit you want is called a mech "hanger"

Bit easier to google when you know the proper name
Hope this helps

You need a new derailleur/mech hanger. The shop you bought the bike from should be able to source a replacement, or speak to Giant.0
