One of my bikes, a DH Jeep Grand Cherokee, has broken its rear (Shimano XTR) derailleur hanger. Now
I am looking for its replacement, first time in my whole life for such a part... and simply put I am
completely lost. Could any one out there please HELP me finding / searching this replacement ?

What is this, a broken part on a Heep DH rig... can't be ;^ 0

Just kidding bro. You'll probably have to get a hold of a Jeep dealer because hangers are frame
specific parts, usually only available from a dealer.

Cool link. And I need to order a spare hanger for the i-drive.

Have you done business with them? I can't find a telephone number or address anywhere on
their website.

Basically true, but if you don't have the disposable income, you gotta make do.

thanks to everyone for helping... besides, at $2400 (price in the states) and 4000 miles far from
there, a grand cherokee isn't exactly a disposable bike. i like its frame, dislike its breaks, a
long etcetera, but ...

Yes, I have. In fact I ordered and received 3 hangers for a GT XCR3000. I just ordered extras
for my Yeti.

I said the same thing. But, after waiting 2 months for GT to send me a hanger (which they never
did), these guys came through in 5 days.

Actually, I heard that Specialized was remotely involved with these.

That's awesome. I hope they do well. If I ever get my DBR going again it would be nice to know a
place like this exists.

Awesome! Thanks again for the link; I was just looking around town for a hanger and nobody had one.

Gotta love those over the bars at 2 mph. One face first into a tree, which dented my top tube and
nearly took out my front der. Several months later, same thing except no tree this time, but I did
manage to take out my hanger. Can't wait to try out my "new trick" on the Turner ;^ )
