Like the video. I am thinking a pair of vice grips would tweak the hanger,if done gently. Maybe a bit of rubber over the hanger to stop the vice grips ripping the paint off the component....
I do understand a lot of adjustment tools are made and used so that the component (in this case the derailleur hanger), is adjusted without the chance to break the component. Adjustment tools will let you get the adjustment exactly right also I guess.
Surely this would be a basic job that any bike shop would correct?? It does seem like it would be a rare problem to have.
Looks like the derailleur hanger is replaceable so if badly damaged you would just buy a new one?
