Got a link to the bike from the manufacturer? This is very strange.

I'd ask the manufacturer (Is it Nashbar? I think I saw that in the catalogue)

So? The point being you screwed up the hanger while running it as a single speed? What?

Haha, no, I have a propensity for destroying rear derailleurs and their hangers. Last MTB I built, it got ripped off on the maiden voyage. I had to next day air one for $25 because I didn't have another bike to ride the next day. I thought that I should go ahead and get a backup for when I put gears on this one. I had all the stuff laying around collecting dust anyways.

I have used the DMR chaintug. I could not shift into the biggest cog without the derailer rubbing on the spokes. Be aware that you will need three hands to put the wheel back on if you have to change a flat on the trail. Changing gears was too much to think about anyway, so I went back to single speed.
