Wheels Manufacturing Derailleur Hanger

Bicycle manufacturers often change frame specifications mid-year, so you cannot rely on the bike model or year alone. The only way to ensure a perfect match is to remove your current hanger and visually compare it against the product imagery provided on our site.

This hanger is CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum, which provides significantly more stiffness than many standard cast or stamped OEM hangers. This increased rigidity helps reduce flex in the drivetrain, leading to crisper, more precise shifting performance.

Yes, the black anodized finish is primarily functional. It creates a durable, protective layer that significantly enhances the aluminum's resistance to corrosion and wear from the elements.

The hanger is designed to interface with the frame's mounting point, not the derailleur itself. As long as the hanger matches your frame's specific mounting interface, it will be compatible with standard rear derailleurs.

Installation typically requires basic hand tools, usually a set of hex keys (Allen wrenches) to remove the mounting bolts. We recommend applying a light coating of grease to the threads during installation to prevent seizing.
