I was buying my new derailleur hangers today from Chumba. He was helpful and is sending me two out today for $25.00 each. The guy was so great, good to know that someone has bought that company that has the love of the sport!

Well, I guess that explains the picture of your bike with no chain or dérailleur.

Did you ever receive them? Was it Aaron Foreman you spoke with? Did he indicate relocating the company to Austin? Did your hangers ship from Austin?

I'm asking because in act of desperation I swallowed my pride and emailed Chumba today to see if they have a triangle. I got a reply from Aaron.

That nice to hear I guess. Had to fix my frame "myself"... Hangers were easy to get online though (not from Chumba).

I got the hangers in a week. I had my secretary handle it for me but I thought she said Brian.
