Has anyone been able to fit a Saint rear derailer on a standard hanger ?
The saint rear derailer is a rear axle mounted derailer, but after studying
the exploded view of a Saint rear derailer as well as having the axle mounting
it has it's own inbuilt hanger part no 5

if say you removed parts 5, 6, 7 & 8,
would you be able to screw the derailer onto a standard hanger instead of onto part no 5 and would it by chance work ?
