Full details

The Burgtec UDH Hanger is an essential upgrade or replacement for mountain bikers using the SRAM Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) standard. It is ideal for riders looking for increased durability and reliable shifting, offering an impact-rotation feature that protects your drivetrain during trail collisions. While it is a precision-engineered component, users should ensure their frame specifically supports the SRAM UDH standard before purchase to avoid compatibility issues.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this hanger compatible with non-SRAM derailleurs?

Yes, as long as your bike frame is designed for the SRAM UDH standard, this hanger will accommodate various drivetrain brands.

Does this come with the mounting bolt?

Yes, the Burgtec UDH Hanger includes all required hardware, including the screw and washer.

Is 7075 aluminum better than standard aluminum?

7075 aluminum is significantly stronger and more fatigue-resistant than standard cast aluminum, providing better precision and longevity.

Why does the hanger rotate?

The impact-rotation design is a safety feature that allows the hanger to move out of the way during a collision to prevent drivetrain damage.

Can I use this on an eMTB?

Yes, this product is fully compatible with both standard MTB and eMTB drivetrains using the UDH standard.

Should I carry a spare?

It is highly recommended to carry a spare hanger in your ride kit to prevent a damaged hanger from ending your day on the trail.

Troubleshooting

Poor shifting after installation

Check if the hanger is properly seated in the frame and that the derailleur limit screws are correctly indexed.

Hanger bolt loosening over time

Verify the bolt is tightened to the recommended 25Nm torque specification and apply a small amount of blue threadlocker if necessary.

Difficult to remove old hanger

Remember that UDH bolts are often reverse-threaded; ensure you are turning in the correct direction to loosen.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure your frame is confirmed to be compatible with the SRAM UDH standard. To install, remove your rear wheel and unscrew the existing hanger bolt (note that UDH systems often feature reverse threading). Clean the area of any grit or old grease. Align the Burgtec UDH Hanger carefully, insert the provided bolt, and tighten to the manufacturer's torque specification, typically 25Nm, though always verify your specific bike's manual. Periodically check the hanger bolt during routine maintenance to ensure it remains tight and that there is no unwanted play in the derailleur interface.
