huh? pretty much any aluminum frame has a replaceable hanger these days. on the truax the same bolt that pinches the axle holds the replaceable hanger.

Check my stuff for sale!

maybe I've been out of it for too long (in fact, I definately have. Need to get back to BC and start riding again), but are a lot of companies using an integrated deraileur hanger? Perrsonally, I would rather have a hanger that is weaker than the deraileur itself, so that I break a $10 part instead of a $100 deraileur when I bash it on a rock. (which I've done several times. In fact, that was the only thing that ever broke on my old treck. Wish I could say the same for my norco)

The Range, and by extension I assume the Truax, has a breakaway bolt for the hanger.

And each frame comes with the replacement bolt on the frame already, so you'll always have a spare. It's located down by the lower shock bolt mount. Check it out on the Range next time you're in a shop (not you Full Monty, the other guy).

I think it's more because people like crapping on Norco, and the fact that they are making something that they may actually like is scaring them, hence why people are finding "looks like a Trek" to be worthy of posting as a criticism.

My thoughts exactly ,but way better spelled,and pronounced.Trek came out with ABT first,and has similarities of the Remedy. Norco prob pay alot for using the patents.
It is called evolution of a company ,look at Banshee bikes.They hired some new desighners and painted it all perdy.
Does it come in Anno,that is supposed to be stronger than painted finishes.

He hosts The Ride Guide, which I believe is on a thing called television.

I think you are getting mixed up with Dylan Trembley( he was on Drop in),and Jay Hoots.
His hair is rad it looks like the "Preditor"
"Rooster" has dreds if you told him to cut it,he would prob want to punch you in the face. So does Max from whistler,who can ride circles around some of you.
Didn't you know dreads give you secret riding mojo.
Look what happened to Sampson when he went to, Great Clips.

I am now growing a Mullet just like "Joe Dirt".
