If you knock the transmission on the rock, but the shift is not smooth, you have a good chance to fine-tune the hanger. With the Wolf Tooth Hanger Alignment Tool, you can see that you are not unsure with the eye. If the hanger does not lose its shape, you can use the hanger alignment tool to reposition the hanger with the minimum force you need. This tool fits mountain and road bikes with 12mm thru axles. Or you can purchase a set that includes a 12mm thru axle tool and a 5mm quick release tool for bikes with traditional skewers.
