The Pilo D778 fits YT Jeffsy CF from 2016 to 2018, Jeffsy AL from 2016 to 2019, and Capra CF and AL from 2018 to 2019, and it replaces YT part number 500768. Some distributor listings extend the Capra range past 2019, so compare your current hanger to the photos before ordering.

Does the Pilo D778 come with the lock nut?

Yes, the S31 lock nut is included with the Pilo D778 hanger. Pilo lists the axle thread size as M16x1 left hand.

Should I straighten a bent derailleur hanger or replace it?

In the shop we will straighten a first bend and replace after that, because every bend and re-bend takes life out of the aluminum. A small tweak on a hanger that has never been bent is worth straightening. A hard hit, a visible crack, or a second bend in the same spot is a replacement.

How do I know if my derailleur hanger is bent?

The usual signs are shifting that will not index cleanly across the cassette, a rear derailleur that does not hang parallel to the cogs when you sight it from behind, and chain noise in the largest cogs. A hanger alignment gauge is the only way to confirm it, which is why it is worth having the bike checked rather than guessing.

Best For

Best for YT Jeffsy and Capra owners who want a spare hanger in the toolbox before they need one. A bent hanger ends a ride, and on a bike this specific the hanger is not something a shop three hours from home is likely to have in a drawer. It is also the right part if your shifting has gone vague since a crash and the hanger turns out to be the reason.
