pererace70 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Today while I was riding past Llandudno my frame's right hand side drop-out (holding the rear deraileur) snapped in half, luckily I was going slowly. So I'd like to know: a) Has this happened to any other Specialized owner on The Hub (or anyone else for that matter)? b) Are the dropouts included in the lifetime frame warrenty?

linnega Posted October 27, 2006 Share Is it the derailleur hanger that broke or the dropout, and is the derailleur hanger removeable. Anything permanently attached to the frame should be covered by the frame warranty for manufacturing defects, but if the hanger snapped (removeable or not) the manufacturer would have a good case to argue that it is the result of impact while loading the bike or similar.

pererace70 Posted October 27, 2006 Share It is the derailleur hanger, which is removable . So looks like i'll have to fight my way through... Thank Linnega Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVANC Posted October 27, 2006 Share Isn't the dropout fairly cheap to replace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pererace70 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Hopefully - I couldn't imagine it to be too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVANC Posted October 27, 2006 Share Yes, think last time I had it replaced it was R35. Probably depends on your lbsCVANC2006-10-27 00:46:57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted October 27, 2006 Share yes, its not expensive. I baught a spare one about a month ago, carry it in my little bag, and I think I pay R55 for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
