Looks better than OEM

This mount appears to be made out of billet aluminum as opposed to the die cast crap Santa originally put on the bike (GT Aggressor Pro). So my assessment of durability is more of a hope than a reality. the time will show.

Pros
  • Niche best
Cons
  • Modern

Solid replacement part at the moment

The hanger that was on my GT Agressor Pro broke because it was hit by a rock while driving so I got this replacement despite a small number of people having trouble with it would have. After a few rides of regular off-road and mountain biking, it seems solid enough, it's held up well.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Update available

Great for our GT mountain bikes

We have several GT mountain bikes - Karakoram, Aggressor and Avalanche. This hanger (comes with a screw) fits all. I had to replace that with the Avalanche and it was perfect. Now I know what to pack for other bikes if needed. FYI, I recommend that you screw the hook to the derailleur first and then to the frame. This makes it easier and eliminates the possibility of thread misalignment.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Slightly dented

Park Assist DAG-2.2 required

Bought one to replace a broken hanger on my Airborne Goblin and one as a spare. There's nothing worse than having to lug your bike 5 miles to your car after the hanger broke. I just want to clarify most of these reviews. Hanger should break. This prevents damage to the frame. So yeah, it sucks when it happens, but it's a heck of a lot better than having to change frames. One last thing, they are never perfectly aligned after installation and you may have trouble getting the rear derailleur to…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Functionality

Nice job for switch

It's hard for me to give a comprehensive review on a product that you don't realize until it breaks, but I'll do my best. Installation was very easy and I liked that it was black instead of chrome like my Guardian. Unfortunately I can't judge the durability too well as I had a pretty bad fall on my first ride after installing it (hard enough to break my wrist) and the hanger got bent. Managed to bend it enough to get home. I played around with this later and was able to make it pretty easy so…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Blank

The switch works great and is a direct replacement for the weak stock

I purchased this switch hanger after searching the internet for a replacement for my Airborne Guardian 2.0. I found a forum on another site linking to this hanger, bought it with Prime and received it the next day. The switch works great and is a direct replacement for a flimsy stock switch. Will definitely buy another one as a backup, don't want to push my bike more than 12 miles. :) UPDATE 11-5-15: Just had to order one more of these after it broke on a tough local trail. It's been 7 short…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Minor issues
