Suntour rear derailleur that has no derailleur hanger
The rear derailleur has a mounting bolt (where the derailleur hooks onto
the axle). I assumed this is for anchoring the derailleur in the proper position Reading more the Suntour rear derailleur mounted on my older Takara is not meant to sit at the back of the dropout. This derailleur has a removable hangar which has no attached hangar. The bolt keep the hanger from spinning, and also moves the derailleur in towards the sprockets. Similar to this image... http://www.thebicyclingguitarist.net...nn/sportabout/ rearderailleur.jpg My question: where can I locate a bracket or axle-stop for the non drive dropout? Making it easy to slide the axle all the way back until it stops on evenly on both dropout and keep the wheel properly centered between the chain stays. JR the postman |

uh there's a metal tab linking deray to dropout, right ? hmmm maybe not. But it's cuttable, drillable from malleable steel.

there were axle stops add on, from Loosescrews ? but take a 10mm bolt and reshape to fit. Use the shaft only or if room file head down to clasp dropout surface.
also possibl;e to use a nut fits 10mm spacing. jamb it in. Sand works. Bolt axle washers onto a layed of sand stuck down with a grease film Andy Muzi can braze a spiff set of dropouts with spacer screws . |

Suntour rear derailleur that has no derailleur hanger
no end to it...
https://www.google.com/search?tbm=is...j8l19l0.frgbld. string is best across the CR flats but oocurs 2me a 1buh2 with wood block shims could mount-bolt-off CR's then position rear wheel with tumor rear shim block for opposite rim diameter pts. is there an equivalent tool - like string b ut string doesn't fix the postion only sugggesting position to eyesight. You can do theblocklayers or wall builders shim with a fixed shim at one end-CR-and a same thickness shim at the other for sliding tween wheel aqnd fixed string- as both ends tiede to a fixed point-CR and uh ??? is probabbbble a deluxe cycle stand has such built in ? |

JR the postman Unecessary complication, just tighten the right wheel nut and the left end of the axle should be in the correct position. Tighten it up (not fully yet), and check the wheel alignment with a length of string. Once that is judged satisfactory, after nudging the rear wheel to effect alignment, tighten up the left side fully. It's not a big deal and you should get a feel for the correct position by aligning with the bikes seat-tube. As long as you can ride no hands, it's good. |

Fiddling with a piece of string is easier than having a wheel stop inserted to the non-drive side dropout? Why not just get another derailleur hanger and grind/cut off the ear and then bolt it to the non-drive sidedropout in the position that the wheel needs to be in? Then putting the wheel back on is as easy as it is with the wheel adjuster bolts found on higher quality bikes. Cheers |
