I've had the mech hanger on my bike for about 7 years and it's taken some abuse in that time so could well be slightly out of line. I'm about to change all the drivetrain for new stuff and figured this would be a good time to change the rear mech hanger.

Where is good these days to get a hanger from? Betd used to be the go to place years ago but now there are millions on eBay and the like for a lot less money. Ate these any good?

Thanks

    If it's not bent it doesn't need replacing.

    £20 seems a lot for a hanger, I'd expect to pay around £10. I don't know what you get for the extra money.

    Depends on the bike. Some are flat aluminium, some are machined pieces. One of mine includes the maxle threads.

    If just a straightforward hanger, Ebay is normally fine, but for the common ones, of ten the stock one from the dealer is cheap.

    As you don't mention what bike, who can say.
