The Pilo D16 derailleur hanger is an essential replacement part for any cyclist concerned with maintaining their drivetrain in perfect condition. Machined with absolute precision using CNC technology from 6061 T651 billet aluminum, it guarantees perfect derailleur alignment and crisp, responsive gear changes. Designed to sacrifice itself in case of impact to protect your frame, this hanger combines strength, lightness, and universal compatibility with numerous brands (Cube, Focus, Fuji, Kona, KHS, KTM, Lapierre, Marin, Norco, Trek, BMC, Bianchi, Scott).

Precision engineering and performance

Manufactured by Pilo Precision Machining Ltd, a renowned Israeli specialist since 2003, the D16 hanger benefits from high-precision CNC machining guaranteeing exact fit and perfect alignment. Its 6061 T651 aluminum construction offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and increased resistance to mechanical fatigue. The hard black anodized finish provides optimal protection against corrosion, scratches, and environmental damage, significantly extending its lifespan. Unlike molded OEM hangers, this CNC-machined version offers superior rigidity and eliminates parasitic flex for even more direct and reliable gear shifting.

Intelligent frame protection

The D16 derailleur hanger is intelligently designed to be the intentional weak link in your drivetrain: in case of impact or crash, it breaks before the frame or derailleur suffers costly damage. This sacrificial design protects your investment and allows you to get back on the road quickly with a simple hanger replacement. Weighing only 90.72 grams, it adds no superfluous mass while fully fulfilling its mechanical safety function.
