Gaaa! Seems last month when my derailleur popped off for the secind time this year that it took the threads with it. Is my only repair option a new frame? Is there a workaround? Remember, the electric motor is on the front wheel. If torque did this it would be because I stay in top gears all the time and charge/climb hills quite hard.

EDIT: What think you of this list? I like option one most, I think. http://www.bikeforums.net/bicycle-me...ur-hanger.html

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
