If the rear mech (aka &lsquo; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/components\/gears-and-drivetrain\/derailleurs\"> derailleur <\/a> &lsquo;, the large oddly-shaped mechanism on your rear wheel) takes a hit, or the bike is knocked over (with or without you on it), or the rear mech overshifts into the spokes, the derailleur might bend and take the gear hanger with it. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mongoose-massif-bent-derailleur-hanger-can-fixed.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2025\/04\/6016_1702_5826_mongoose-massif-bent-derailleur-hanger-can-fixed.jpg\" style=\"max-width: 600px\"><\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"image-caption\"> This rear gear hanger is part of the bicycle&rsquo;s frame, and not a separate piece like in the photo above. It&rsquo;s taken a bad whack and is completely bent. If it can&rsquo;t be bent back into position, it&rsquo;s going to be serious trouble for the frame. <\/span><\/h5>\n<p> If you ride a steel frame, you might be able to carefully bend the gear hanger (or &lsquo;dropout&rsquo;) back into shape, parallel with the rear wheel. <\/p>\n<p><strong> But if the frame is aluminium alloy, titanium or carbon, <\/strong> &nbsp;the dropout may well snap, spelling big trouble for your bike frame &ndash; hence the existence of spare replaceable rear gear hangers like&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/collection\/bike-gear-hangers\"> this <\/a> . It&rsquo;s a sacrificial part so if it takes a hit, the replaceable drop out will bend or break &ndash; and, hopefully, not the derailleur. Or the frame. <\/p>\n<p> It&rsquo;s therefore worth packing a spare gear hanger, specific to your frame, in your emergency toolkit on any significant ride. This small but crucial part may well save the day. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"spec-hangers-all.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2025\/04\/5116_1702_5827_spec-hangers-all.jpg\" style=\"max-width: 600px\"><\/p>\n<p> A selection of gear hangers by bike manufacturer Specialized. <\/p>\n<h2> SHOP&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/collection\/bike-gear-hangers\"> GEAR HANGERS <\/a><\/h2>\n<p><strong> Not sure what you need?&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/contact-us\"> Send us an email or give us a ring. <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"blog-entry-social-media\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"blog-entry-tags\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why You Should Always Carry a Spare Gear Hanger in your emergency toolkit on any significant ride.
