TVT 92

[theGFondo]

hi all
can anyone help, i have a TVT 92 carbone that has been sitting in my attic for years after i broke the threaded part of the rear derailleur hanger, it sheared off pretty much horizontal ' 9 across to 3' if you picture a clock face, anybody know of a successful repair and by whom or have come across a complete drive side dropout?
thanks

Bit of a shame to have a TVT in the loft :-(

Is there enough meat left on the remaining part of the dropout to fit (or have it made to fit) a mountain bike replaceable dropout?

...you can contact this ebay seller - he offered a TVT92 with former broken derailleur hanger (see the above link)

Perhabs he knows and can tell you how such derailleur hanger can be repaired i.e. welded!

Welcome to RB

It may be possible to bodge a job by using a hanger which is incorporporated into a rear mech. This can be fitted in the dropout with a semi-circular fitting. Although this option may not be best, at least it would get you moving.

Have a look at SJS Cycles - they usually have fittings.

This mech -

MAY BE ABLE TO BE FITTED with this -

N.B. The word MAY as i am not 100% sure.

OR -

Have a look at this fitting -

Which looks like an easier option.

I hope this is of some help.

hi
thanks for the info, i made a few calls and it seems that Argos might have come up trumps so keeping my fingers crossed when i drop down to them, going to see if they can repair a Vitus 979 and an Alan Carbonio whilst i'm there.
