No bike shop. I removed the derailleur with an Allen wrench set from
a dollarish store. The floppy chain skipped into other gears and out
of gear the entire 16 km 90 min. home.

It took 8 hours to rehydrate.

I found a $15 hanger on Amazon carefully measuring the critical
dimensions on the screen.

In the meantime I will be stuck in one gear but at least it won't flip
off the free hub.

Do you have a photo?


You're taking an interest in cycling at last?


I have had a keen interest in cycling for years.


Same here, as well as a passing interest in engineering repairs.

It would be interesting to see what sort of repair was made to a set of
Derailleurs using Araldite (or whatever).
