Marin Hanger #42

Derailleur hangers are frame-specific, not universal. You should check your bike's manual or look for the specific hanger number stamped on your current, broken hanger to ensure a perfect match before purchasing.

This package includes the hanger components as specified. It typically does not include the small mounting bolts, so it is best to retain the original hardware from your bike if it is still in good condition.

A derailleur hanger is designed to be the 'weak link' in your drivetrain. If your bike takes a hit or the derailleur gets caught, the hanger bends or breaks to save your frame from expensive damage. Having a spare ensures you can get back on the road or trail immediately without waiting for a replacement part.

Installation is generally straightforward and requires only basic hand tools like a hex key set. However, once installed, you may need to perform a minor derailleur adjustment or indexing to ensure your shifting remains crisp and accurate.

Some specific Marin frame designs utilize a two-piece hanger system for structural integrity. This kit provides the necessary components to replace the full assembly, ensuring your derailleur mount is properly aligned and secure.
