Looks like a standard straight hanger, so it can take SRAM derailleurs directly or Shimano ones with the horizontal extender link that Shimano includes.

Also, any thoughts on possible over-shocking or running offset bushings to raise the bike for an MX build? I like the idea of trying out a mullet setup but would want to bring the geometry as close to normal as possible. I don’t love super low BB heights on my usual trails, too many violent pedal strikes even with good technique.

What are everyone’s impressions of tire clearance? Is 2.4 on ~30mm internal rims about the real limit or might I be able to fit a 2.6? (Presumably fitting protective stickers to ward off any occasional rub.) I demoed a Hightower this summer and noticed tire clearance was crazy tight, just wondering if the 831 is similar that way. I live in a very rooty rocky area and would like maximum tire volume.
