Bianchi rear derailleur hanger

Postby ComradeSpear » Sun Jan 29, 2017 3:54 pm

Hi all,

I am finding it difficult to find a local supplier selling a hanger for a Bianchi Oltre XR2 rear mech. I can buy from overseas but they are fairly expensive & will take time to arrive. Haven't tried Aliexpress yet.

It looks like a like seahorse :) Image

Does anyone know where to buy from locally? or if buying from Aliexpress are there standardised hanger models so I order the correct one?

These are stronger than factory.
Evans cycles have a lot but don't seem to have that one.

That's the one I've been looking at but fairly priced by the time you get it to oz.

Contacted the Bianchi Importer / Distributor? I did this on a couple of occasions for my bikes:

1. Wilier road bike as was taking this bike overseas so important to have a spare as will be next to impossible to find a replacement whilst traveling. Bought one from the distributor.
2. Colnago CX bike (I was competing in the 2015 National series and wanted a spare as there were two races each round and series points critical). Sent free from the distributor.

Also check pushy's. I bought a spare for my MTB from them.

both close, the point just below the left mounting hole is not as pronounced but i dont think that would make a difference., the critical bit will be the mounting hole centers. pity its chinese holidays, will take even longet ATM,

iam sure we all agree the time to buy a hanger is BEFORE we need one.

Found one @Pushy's but almost triple the price from the US!!
Good idea about the distributor... will follow up on that one. Cheers.

The US websites dont use currency converters. The price difference might not be as much as you think compared to pushys. I also wouldnt be trying to match one by online pictures, its impossible to try and compare whether the bolt holes are in right spots.

Is it just me, or are derailleur hangers a part that is just crying out for some industry standardisation.

No chance. How could fims charge 40 bucks plus if they were generic?


Btw i got mine from aliexpress or ebay for about 2 bucks iirc.
