Thanks. Yup, familiar with the replaceable derailleur hangers and their concept, but for some reason it still always gave me that sinking feeling when yanking on one with the tool! :)I've snapped a lot of hangers over the years but never a frame. Most of the time you'll know before you even start that the hanger will snap but it is a bit of fun to give it a go anyway.
I also have the joy of playing with a lot of vintage, retro and Team Issue bikes, most of which tend to have non-replaceable hangers. Admittedly they are usually made of steel which helps but it's still a nerve racking task.
