My mate came off this bike yesterday,bent and threaded the mech hanger which is'nt replaceable on this bike,does anyone know how he can sort it?
its an 06 frame cheers
It will mean new chain stays. Scott do a kit which will be very expensive probably so trawl e-bay for frames as I did but phone a Scott dealer for a proce too. Pedal on cycles would be worth a shout as they sorted out a pivot bolt for me which Scott only do as a £100 kit!
yep new chain stay time, a friend tore his mech off, and due to the non replaceable hanger ended up with a rather large bill as he needed a new mech and chainstay
I'd look at either getting the mech hanger helicoiled or using a thin headed nut the other side of the hanger and a slightly longer bolt..
a number of companies do 'emergency mech hangers that attach to a qr too - might be worth investigating.
hmm cheers,though it was gonna be bad news for him.
wwaswas- not possible on the Genius if he's bent the rear stay as well as it's all integral.
Sadly the downside of the genius- but it's only one .
£120 for a new seatstay iirc.
he has'nt bent the stay just the hanger,bit poo how it aint replaceable..
£120 wysiwyg? hes gonna need new mech too poor git lol..
yah, if you give us a call we can sort it out.
Alright Blower, it's Luke. Handz did this to his and yeah, had to get new stays.
whats wi the name luke....
how much handz pay??
see if you can buy a knackered frame and then keep for spares or sell the bits you don't want? They are easy enough to dismantle and the seatstay bearings aren't too tricky to replace.
wysiwyg ave u got a number??
Give 01623 822855 a call, ask for Jamie
He pair about £80 I think. Still a bit steep.
i did this to my carbon scale and when i contacted scott they put me in touch with a company called hq fibre products in norfolk (i think) who removed the old dropout and bonded a newer replacable hanger type on, not as big a job as you'd think cost about £50
