{"product_id":"pilo-d195-derailleur-hanger-for-dropout-cannondale","title":"Derailleur Hanger for Cannondale","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Pilo D195 Derailleur Hanger is a precision-machined replacement dropout hanger designed specifically for Cannondale frames. A snapped or bent derailleur hanger is one of the most common mid-ride crises Indian cyclists face — from potholed city streets in Hyderabad to rocky descents around Lonavala — and having the correct replacement part on hand keeps your drivetrain shifting cleanly and your frame protected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndian roads are genuinely hard on drivetrain components. Speed bumps, surprise potholes on the Chennai–Bangalore highway, and tight switchbacks on Ooty climbs all create the kind of lateral stress that sacrifices a derailleur hanger before the derailleur or the frame suffers. The Pilo D195 is machined to precise tolerances, giving a confident fit on compatible Cannondale dropouts. We rate this a smart, low-cost insurance policy that every Cannondale owner should carry in their saddle bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizing for Indian Riders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a frame-specific component, not a body-sizing item. What matters is your Cannondale frame model and year. Pilo assigns model numbers to match exact dropout geometry — D195 corresponds to specific Cannondale frames. If you are unsure of compatibility, share your frame model and year with our team before ordering. Rider weight and riding style do not affect hanger selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe D195 is designed for select Cannondale frames — verify your frame model against Pilo's compatibility chart before purchase. It is compatible with both mechanical and electronic rear derailleurs. Torque the mounting bolt to the manufacturer's specification using a calibrated torque wrench. Inspect threads after any derailleur impact before reinstalling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete the repair kit with a quality rear derailleur from Shimano or SRAM, a fresh derailleur cable and housing set, a chain wear indicator tool, and a compact multi-tool with the correct bolt size for your hanger — all available at Cobbled Climbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pilo\"\u003eExplore the full Pilo collection at Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy from Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% genuine — authorised Pilo retailer in India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree delivery on orders above Rs. 2,500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCash on delivery available nationwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-day easy returns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipped from Mumbai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpert advice — our team rides this gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e.cc-faq{margin:32px 0 24px}.cc-faq__item{border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;margin:0}.cc-faq__item:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5}.cc-faq__q{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;padding:24px 0;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:24px;outline:none}.cc-faq__q::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.cc-faq__q:focus-visible{outline:2px solid #000;outline-offset:-2px}.cc-faq__q::after{content:\"\";width:14px;height:14px;flex-shrink:0;background-image:url('data:image\/svg+xml;utf8,\u003csvg viewBox=\\\"0 0 14 14\\\" xmlns=\\\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\\\"\u003e\u003cpath d=\\\"M2 5l5 5 5-5\\\" stroke=\\\"%23000\\\" stroke-width=\\\"1.5\\\" fill=\\\"none\\\"\/\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e');background-repeat:no-repeat;background-position:center;transition:transform .2s ease}.cc-faq__item[open] .cc-faq__q::after{transform:rotate(180deg)}.cc-faq__a{padding:0 0 28px;margin:0}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003csection class=\"cc-faq\" aria-label=\"Frequently Asked Questions\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eWhat is the Pilo D195 Derailleur Hanger best used for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eThe Pilo D195 is a direct replacement hanger for compatible Cannondale frames.
