The ORBEA Rear Derailleur Hanger Nº42 QR MTB DM M4x8 is a precision-engineered replacement hanger designed specifically for selected Orbea mountain bike frames. As a critical link between your frame and rear derailleur, the hanger is intentionally made to be the weak point in the system, sacrificing itself in the event of an impact to help protect your frame and drivetrain. Replacing a bent or broken hanger restores accurate shifting performance, reduces drivetrain noise, and helps extend the life of your derailleur and cassette.
This direct-mount hanger is designed for QR (quick-release) MTB setups and uses M4x8 mounting hardware, making it straightforward for mechanics and home users to install with standard tools. It is ideal to keep as a spare in your toolbox or travel kit, ensuring that a minor crash or transport mishap does not end your ride or trip. Using an original-style hanger helps maintain correct alignment and compatibility with your Orbea frame, giving you reliable, crisp shifting on every ride, from daily training loops to demanding off-road adventures.
