Wheels Manufacturing Derailleur Hanger

This specific hanger is designed to replace the Kona Type D hanger. Because derailleur hangers are frame-specific, you must verify that your current hanger matches the shape and mounting hole pattern of this part before purchasing.

Wheels Manufacturing hangers are CNC machined from 6061 aluminum, which is often more durable and precise than the cast or stamped hangers found on many stock bikes. While it is built to be robust, it is still designed to be the 'sacrificial' part that bends to protect your frame during an impact.

No, this package includes only the derailleur hanger itself. You will need to reuse the existing mounting bolts from your frame, so be sure to keep them safe when you remove your old hanger.

The black anodized finish isn't just for aesthetics; it provides a hardened, corrosion-resistant layer that helps protect the aluminum from oxidation and the elements, ensuring the part maintains its structural integrity over time.

While it is technically possible to straighten a bent hanger, we generally advise against it. Once aluminum has been bent, the metal is fatigued and weakened, making it prone to snapping or failing under load in the future; replacing it is the safer, more reliable option.
