Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

check the strength of the frame, you my be able to use a seat tube shim of some sort for strength, and use a clamp on FD.

What setup had ye? One time my LBS convinced me I could install a new 12x30 rear cassette and mate it to the original short-cage RD and 53x39 FD without replacing the chain or derailleur . . . and without issue.

Turns out, there were issues.

I agree with you. I wouldn't try to recover that frame with two problems. If you're the original owner, see if Scott will replace the frame. If you're not the original owner, I'd just look on ebay for a replacement frame and start from there. At some point you have to ask, "is my life worth the cost of a frame?"

A slight bump while under stress might have jumped the chain into the spokes. I can't think of another action that could have caused the damage. Those dork disc's only need to work once to make up for their "look". Bummer about the bicycle. Glad you're OK.

If the hanger wasn't split (didn't notice that in the slightly blurry pic until it was pointed out by the OP), then something like this would be the fix for the hanger: Wheels MFG Drop Out Saver For Thick > Accessories > Tools > Frame Tools | Jenson USA

If you weren't shifting how would the chain just come off the big cog into the spokes? And how did that rip the braze on rivets out of the tube and move the chain from the small ring up and over the big ring?

To OP, glad you're ok, sorry for your loss though...

I love the look of the original version of the CR1 and have been wanting to buy an old frame off ebay, but the non-replaceable hanger is the big reason I don't.

They give a good ride and you Cannot beat them for the price and weight ! Check into Topolinos as well they weigh in around 1525g , I had a set on my Cannondale System Six , those where the best wheels I ever had ridden on , a used set very seldom pop up on EBay, I watched for a month until some listed and I hit the buy it now button very quickly , they normally price out around 400.

A friend of mine has a Scott frame that had a failure that left the RD inoperable. Not as bad as the OP, thankfully, but leaves one wondering about these particular CF frames..
