I've just removed it from the derailleur to photograph it...

Think I'll have to go to the LBS and ask them to source me the hanger. Once I have the part number I can then buy them elsewhere in the future.

Cripes! This is getting dearer by the minute. Derailleur Bracket Cassette Chain

So I need one that’s specific to both my Cube Reaction Race frame, and my Shimano XT derailleur. They don’t make life easy do they :)

Struggling to find the hanger as a separate item when looking online. I’m assuming they are available as a separate item?

Thanks awol. I’m wondering if it might be worth getting a new mech anyway incase it’s got twisted when being dragged around the cassette. The bikes been used every day for last 2 years over 1,500 miles. I need a new chain & cassette so is it worth having a new mech at the same time?

Thanks Toby. Any idea if the fixing bracket is part of the mech, or is that a separate item?

Snapped my rear mech today. Looks like a link broke in the chain and dragged the rear mech around my cassette. Sounded horrible. Looking at the spec of my Cube Reaction Race it says its fitted with a Shimano XT RD-M8000-DGS ShadowPlus 11 speed rear derailleur Searching online for a...

Anyone know the differences between the KMC chains please? I'm looking for an 11 speed chain, but there seem to be a few different KMC chains to choose from, with price differences.. KMC X11SL £47 KMC X11EL £29 KMC X11GY £25 KMC X11.93 £15 KMC E11EPT (ebikes) at £37 Whats the main...

It would be nice if the.Bosch display gave an indication of the type of assistance your getting when in EMTB mode, currently I haven’t a clue.

Bradford & Bingley want stupid money for my house insurance renewal, so in looking to switch. It would seem from this thread that LV and Esure are known to cover ebikes. Anyone know of any other house insurance providers that cover ebikes?

Might give this a try with my chainsaw file.

Ive increased the number of teeth on the front chain ring but I've kept the new chain the same length as the previous

I'll get the cassette changed. The cassette that came with the bike is a Shimano SLX M7000 11-46T which typically costs about £60. When last changed I went for the same again. Are there any others that should be considering?

Maybe I will have to do this. However my bother paid good money for a cassette with separate individual sprockets, only to discover that the sprockets weren't available to purchase separately.

The chain slipping has only started since swapping to a larger front chainring, which is why I assumed this was the cause. I fitted a brand new chain at the same time. It wasn't slipping before this, but perhaps the two smallest rear cogs had already worn, but were nicely bedded in with the...

Yes, the original was 12T but I’ve changed it to a 15T. But I may have to switch back to the 11 now.

My larger chain wheel only has 15 teeth. But perhaps it is the rear cogs, with gear 10 & 11 having the smallest number of teeth I guess that’s possibly the cause. At the rate I’ve been going through chains, (about every three months) if I changed the rear cassette every time at £50 a pop I...

I've started suffering from chain slipping since recently putting a larger front chainring on my 11 speed 2018 Cube Reaction Race. It's only when i'm in 10th & 11th gear. I went from the standard 12T chainring to a 15T to get a bit more top end speed, and fitted a new chain of the same size at...

Understood, but surely the reason for having tread is for wet weather, to allow water to pass through the tyre so you don't aquaplane? Hence why F1 tyres are perfectly smooth to give maximum grip, whereas wet weather tyres have tread. Though I accept that bike tyres are maybe too narrow for...
