{"product_id":"pilo-d344-derailleur-hanger-for-ghost","title":"Derailleur Hanger for Ghost","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Pilo D344 Derailleur Hanger is a precision-machined replacement dropout hanger designed specifically for Ghost bicycles. If you have ever bent or snapped a derailleur hanger on a rough road patch or after a topple at a trail head, you know how quickly a ride can come to a halt. Keeping a spare on hand is simply good practice for any cyclist riding Indian roads regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndia's roads demand a certain pragmatism from cyclists. From the broken tarmac of Pune's outer ring roads to the sharp gravel edges common on Ooty and Coorg descents, derailleur hangers take punishment that European road conditions rarely dish out. The Pilo D344 is machined to close tolerances, meaning derailleur alignment stays true and shifting stays crisp even after a replacement. For Ghost bike owners, this is the only hanger worth keeping in your saddle bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizing for Indian Riders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDerailleur hangers are bike-specific rather than rider-specific, so sizing here means compatibility rather than fit. Confirm your Ghost bicycle model before ordering — the D344 is not universal. Ghost bikes sold in India typically arrive via authorised import, so check your frame's model tag or documentation. No heat or body-size consideration applies, but storage in a zip-lock inside your saddle bag keeps the hanger corrosion-free through monsoon months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Pilo D344 is engineered exclusively for compatible Ghost bicycle frames. It works with standard rear derailleur bolt patterns across Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo groupsets. Always check thread pitch before installation. Avoid over-torquing the derailleur bolt during fitting. Pilo hangers are CNC-machined from aluminium alloy for consistent quality across batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete your drivetrain protection kit with a rear derailleur from Shimano or SRAM, a quality chain and cassette suited to your groupset, a compact multi-tool that includes the correct allen key for hanger installation, and a waterproof saddle bag to store your spare hanger on every ride.\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 D344 Derailleur Hanger best used for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eThe Pilo D344 is a direct replacement derailleur hanger for compatible Ghost bicycle frames. It is best used as a spare kept ready for trail-side or roadside repairs after a crash or impact bends or breaks your original hanger. Indian roads, particularly on hilly routes around Lonavala, Khandala, or Coorg, make carrying a spare hanger a sensible precaution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eHow do I know the Pilo D344 fits my Ghost bike?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eThe D344 is frame-specific and fits only compatible Ghost bicycle models. Check the model name and year on your frame's sticker or original purchase paperwork. If you are still unsure, contact Cobbled Climbs with your frame model details before ordering.

Keep your spare sealed in a small zip-lock bag. Once installed on the frame, standard post-ride cleaning and a light coat of dry lubricant near the bolt threads will extend its service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eHow does the Pilo D344 compare to an OEM Ghost derailleur hanger?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eOEM hangers from Ghost can be difficult to source in India and often carry long lead times through official channels. The Pilo D344 is precision CNC-machined to match OEM dimensions, frequently meeting or exceeding original tolerances.
