2005 Specialized Hardrock Sport derailleur hanger
An acquaintance just sent me these photos of her woman's Hardrock. She said that after shifting at the top of a hill (possibly badly), this happened going down.
Looks to me like the hanger, but I thought they were steel and bendable, but this just snapped. Is it cast aluminum ?
Is this part still available (in Canada) ?
Thanks.

Thanks dedhed. Looks like it won't be a problem for a lbs to fix this. Don't know if the derailleur is ok, but even then it's not expensive.

It took about an hour to reshape the front and top of the hanger to fit, and the lower hole was a bit out of place too.
to his credit, he did refund immediately.. i was just happy that it was for my Specialized Enduro, and not a customer bike.

I didn't realize that derailleur hangers were a business onto themselves. Looks like Pilo makes what is needed and is available locally.

And they are designed to snap. I think if they were to just bend (towards the spokes for example) it’s probably more dangerous.

Pretty much every steel frame dropout hanger just bends.
