Hi Kristian,

my Ridley had the same problem (plus damage to the rear wheel and rear mech).

Not sure if yours is the same as mine but I've been looking online for a new mech and have a few links so far. Some of the links give a few different options for different models. Mine is very similar to the one from chain reaction, but our suppliers do a very similar one and I'll be speaking with them tomorrow morning to check compatibility. Let me know if yours is like mine and if it is different post a pic. I'll be able to supply one for £11.99 delivered if they have a suitable one for you.

Hi Gary,

 

I think I got away with it with the wheel and hopefully the rear mech. Fortunately i was on a steep climb and so stopped straight away. The mech seems straight, fortunately the hanger snapped almost instantaneously! I won't really know until it is all back together but i think the mech is still all straight. the spokes have a nick in them but I think they will be ok too. I will get it apart and compare to your picture.

 

Thanks Kris

Hi Kris,

no worries. Mine snapped as I put pressure on coming out of the trees on the first climb on the second lap, tried to straighten it by hand but the rear mech was already damaged so when I tried to pedal the hanger snapped!!!

I've asked the manufacturer for a list of makes and models for their dropout range (they do about 60 and there are so many that are suitable for various bikes!. The list is in production so won't be out anytime soon. The one that looks like an identical match to mine is out of stock until feb 9th! I've to get a new rear mech and get the rear wheel sorted (and possibly a new chain if it has a few bends in some of the links) so I'm happy to wait. Send me a pic and I'll have a look to see if yours is available as they are only out of stock on 2 of the 60 range.

Hopefully the advatage of running an Ultegra mech is the strength! Or it will be costly! MIne happened on the climb up to the steps, with only five minutes to go. I finished with a walk waiting to get lapped as I didn't fancy running for another lap!

Gary,

 

I believe it is this one that is needed:

Hi Kris,

It looks very like dropout 60 or dropout 45 in the attatched image. Let me know if you'd like one of these and I'll send a Paypal invoice as our website is currently undergoing redevelopment.

If you think these wont suit then possible speak to Ridley via twitter. @Ridley_Bikes or try their UK delaer locator to see if they can help: http://www.ridley-bikes.com/about-ridley/dealers

Hi Gary,

 

It doesn't seem to be any of those.  It is like the 60 one but actually inverted compared to that if that makes sense?

I also got a Wheels Manufacturing Dropout-61 which is supposed to fit but that doesn't either. Going to ring the Ridley dealer back tomorrow, they ordered a Wheels manufacturing one but I suspect that will be the same as the one I got from ChainReaction.

 

Looks like this

Cheers

Kris

Hi Kris,

Ridley messaged me via Adrian Walsh on Twitter and recommended Pedasport in Halifax, ask for Mark or Rick. Said they are CX Experts and will post the correct one out. There is also a dealer locator on their website that might help.

Hope this helps.

Hi All

Did anyone have any success sourcing a Ridley X-Fire rear hanger?

Broke mine today so need a replacement ASAP.

Thanks

Hi Sean,

try this one: http://www.probikekit.com/uk/replaceable-derailleur-hanger-61.html?...

hargroves cycles or sjs might have it too.

I have a crosswind and got mine from Hargroves in the end. They were slow to reply to emails though and I ended up just ordering it as it was taking them forever to reply!

Brilliant.  Thanks Gary, I will check them out today.
