Rear Derailleur hanger replacement and no name frame
I was just wondering on the carbon fiber no name frames that that are on ebay, where would anyone get a replacement derailleur hanger?

When I bought my no-name (which I am pretty happy with) back in 2010, I emailed the seller before I completed the transaction to request two extra hangers. There were included at no charge.

When you have NFI, all you can do is browse https://www.derailleurhanger.com/ and find one that looks like it'll fit.
At my co-op we have a little collection of them, which is handy... yesterday I spotted a decent frameset minus its hanger, and the first one I pulled out of the tub fit like a charm... but often a bit of filing or dremel work is required to make it fit...
I can actually imagine a future where frame makers have settled on a mere half-dozen types of hanger or so, but I have no idea how to get there. ISO up, h0nkies.

the removable /replaceable derailleur hanger is what you align/ or your index shifting is whack.

When you get that alignment right, chain chatter will be silenced and your bike will purr as you pedal. Seriously.
