The hanger is two pieces, which I describe as inner and outer. The inner piece is always the actual “hanger” piece that connects to the derailleur. The inner and outer pieces sandwich the frame if that makes sense. The stock derailleur hanger set has the threads on the inner piece with the actual hanger part. The stock outer piece is just a piece of metal that is secured to the frame with a tiny bolt. I didn’t like that because if that tiny little bolt fails (and I’ve had it happen) then the outer piece falls off, which means the frame dropout isn’t secure. The thru axle will keep the wheel in place secured to the hanger, the frame won’t have any attachment points. So the frame is really only secured with the tiny bolt.
With the Cube hanger set, the threads are moved to the outer piece. So now you get the inner piece with the hanger, then the frame, then the outer piece with the threads. So now the thru axle connects to the outer piece and secures everything. Much more secure.
So what I bought is the inner piece (hanger with no threads) and a separate outer piece (with threads) and combined them to get the set.
Hope that makes sense.
Yea, sort of. It's the Cube hanger. There are 2 ways to do it. The first link has 2 different hangers and you could use either with some mods. The 906 inner piece fits the frame, but the hole is too small. The 784 outer piece is the correct piece you need, and the hole is the right size, but the "neck?" is too wide and doesn't fit. So I actually bought both and modded them. So you either drill the hole slightly bigger on the 906 to fit the outer piece. Or you can trim the 784 a bit to get it to fit. I did both but ended up sticking with the 906.
The 2nd link is for a different outer piece with a 1.5 thread pitch to match the stock thru axle. So if I did it again, I'd buy the 906 from the first link and the outer piece from the 2nd link, then drill out the 906. It's a very small amount and took like 2 minutes.
