I could be wrong but I think we were always the only shop to stock the full range of Commencal hangers, some others stock the common ones, we were the only ones stocking everything. Well, this is a post to warn folk that we are now getting to the ends of our stock, and we will not be getting any more.

I'm not sure of the situation with the new UK distributors regards stock, but I do know that it was always a nightmare for us getting hanger stock for Commencal, so I suspect they'll find it no easier.

It might be an idea to stock up now, whilst there is still stock available in the UK.

We are now sold out on 2010 onwards Meta/Super4 QR drive side hangers.

If this is what your bike takes, and you've no spares, I would seriously suggest sourcing some now as it might take months to get them.

We still have some of the bolt thru version for the bikes above, these can be used if needed. Not idea but will work.

Just spent a fortune on spares including mech hangers so hopefully should have stock very soon

Steve have you ever had or been able to get hold of replacement sliding dropouts for the ti flame? The big things that include the disc brake post mount, or just any of the parts like the threaded rod and knurled wheel tensioning thingy?
I've never seen any anywhere and just remembered one of the barrelscrew adjusty things is broke on mine, it's not an issue but means I could never extend the dropouts to run single speed (I'm unlikely to ever do that)
If stocks are low its prob worth me replacing, esp if the frame is discontinued?

Pretty sure we have them, we've a box of bits that all look similar, and have the brake mount etc. Send me pics of the exact bits you need and I'll check.

Hi, are you from Decade? If so, might be worth mentioning it, so folk know where the posts/comments are originating from and will know that their local dealer will have bits etc.

Are there any actual dates for deliveries or is it still a bit vague at present?

EDIT: Just remembered I'm a mod on here, so can check peoples registered emails. D'oh!

So, yes, Craig is from Decade, so folks, might be an idea to direct questions about the new 2012 range to him in future instead of me.

Craig: Wanna buy this site off me? :-)

Opps, as usual, always the last to know. ;-)

Steve I'll send you an email tonight about the Flame ti hanger

[craig1980]

  SteveB yes I am from Decade. I have been asked questions already.

Deliveries are expected from the end of this month onwards. Different models on different drops over the next few months. No exact dates for specific models as yet though!

Your best bet for the site is to speak to Matt in the office. Leave it till the middle of next week at least though as he is at Interbike at the moment and will need time to recover.

Is that for the hangers or the bikes?

[craig1980]

Both I believe.

[steveb]

Thats good. There has been great long periods in the past when no one, neither dealers or Madison, could get hangers, riders had bikes unridable for the sake of a £20 bit of metal. Crazy!

Once we've run out everyone is going to be up shit creek if there is no stock in the UK.
