rear derailleur hanger replacement
When installing replacements, be sure to throughly clean and inspect the dropout for any
damage. Do not install a replacement hanger onto a damaged dropout.
Before re- installing (same or new):
Clean surfaces and apply a light film of bike grease between the hanger and
dropout to minimize any noise or “creaking” that might result from very slight
movement between the dropout and hanger during movement of the derailleur.
Apply Loctite and tighten the hanger nut/bolt to the specified torque.
Be sure to check alignment of derailleur hanger following remounting.
Be sure to readjust wheel quick release so it is very tight.
