April’s New Hangers – 12x142mm

NSB DH0094 Trek 12x142mm for 2012 Session, Slash, and Remedy

All hail the new all mountain / aggressive trail bike rear hub standard! We think it's a good thing.  Stiffer rear triangles, 12mm axles with quick releases, frame dropouts.... what's not to like?  But it does mean a whole schwack of new hangers.  Don't worry, NSB is on it.  Adding to our line up is Rocky Mountain's and Trek's new hangers.  Both cover several models so if you are getting a new bike this year - check these out.  If you are running the Syntace X12 system we've got a hanger for you here. Next?  Specialized 12x142mm hanger for the Stumpjumper FSR EVO.
