Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Coherny Bike Hanger Alignment Gauge - Effective Tool for MTB and Road Bikes Alignment by Black Holstead

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Inexpensive, looks fantastic, works well Enuff

This derailleur hanger alignment tool is made of aluminum and looks just as nice as the pictures. Very cool design and the anodized finish is great. When I first got it in the mail, I was also surprised at how compact it is (just 9 inches long), so it's also a great option if you're short on space. Despite this, it's still a tool with a serious purpose. The various parts of this hanger alignment tool fit together very snugly (but they do fit), including a measuring stick and a red telescoping arm that pivots around a black threaded piece (most of the black piece is aluminum, but the threads are in steel be screwed). Suspension). I've found that lots of lube helps extend the dipstick and turn the red lever easier. However, it was initially difficult to rotate the red lever around the wheel without unscrewing the tool from the derailleur hanger. I had to keep checking to make sure the black part was secure, but the red lever seemed to loosen over time. The dipstick came with two black rubber rings for position marking. My hanger was badly damaged so I took a crescent wrench to make basic adjustments and then used the alignment tool to measure and check the improvements a couple of times. The retractable red lever should NOT be used as a lever according to the instructions; Any bending required should be done with the round pin on the black part. As I mentioned, after about 10 minutes the red arm started to rotate more easily and I ended up checking the suspension alignment at numerous points around the wheel. I'm actually quite happy with the instrument now and have no regrets about the purchase especially considering the price.
