Cannondale SuperSix Evo Derailleur Hanger

This hanger, model KP395, is specifically engineered for 2017-2018 SuperSix Evo (Disc and Rim) models, as well as 2017-2018 SuperSix Evo Hi-MOD (Disc) and 2016-2018 SuperSix Evo Hi-MOD (Rim) frames. Always double-check your bike's model year and frame type before purchasing, as hanger designs are highly specific to frame geometry.

Derailleur hangers are precision-machined to align perfectly with your frame's dropouts and the derailleur itself. Using an official Cannondale OEM part ensures the exact geometry required for crisp, reliable shifting and prevents potential damage to your derailleur or frame caused by poor alignment.

The hanger acts as a sacrificial link between your frame and the rear derailleur. In the event of a crash or impact, the hanger is designed to bend or break first, absorbing the force to protect your expensive carbon or alloy frame from permanent damage.

Yes, it is highly recommended. Because hangers are designed to fail to save your frame, a bent or broken hanger can immediately end your ride. Having a spare in your toolbox or saddlebag ensures you can get back on the road quickly without waiting for shipping.

While some hangers can be temporarily straightened with a dedicated alignment tool, the metal often weakens or fatigues during the process. For optimal shifting performance and safety, replacing a bent hanger with a new one is always the best practice.
