Pro tip: A customer in Tacoma told me to always check the derailleur hanger before adjusting the limit screws.

He said his bike shifted perfectly after a crash until he 'fixed' the limits, then it was totally wrecked. How many times have you seen that happen?

Yeah, but here's the thing that gets me. How bent does a hanger have to be before you absolutely must fix it first? Like, is there a tiny bend where you could still get the limits sort of set, or is any bend at all a total deal-breaker for setting up the gears right? I feel like that's the real pro tip people need.

That hanger was probably already bent.
