CUBE Stereo Hybrid 120 2016 Derailleur Hanger: Match ART10241
The Stereo Hybrid 120 2016 derailleur hanger has a specific entry in CUBE's historical dropout catalogue. That is a better starting point than matching the shape of an online photograph. The hanger is also a different purchase from a rear derailleur or rear axle, even when all three appear close together on the same side of the bicycle.
Locate the Stereo Hybrid 120 2016 derailleur hanger
Physical page nine of the 2016 dropout and hanger table (https://file.cube.eu/azwesc1xfg346/media/ef/fd/55/1657882348/Dropouts_Schaltaugen_2016.pdf?ts=1657882348) lists ART10241 for model 771300, Stereo Hybrid 120 HPA Race 500, and 771301, its Nyon version. The same entry includes the named HPA Pro models 771200 and 771250. Record both the bicycle's model number and ART10241 when asking a dealer about a replacement.
The entry also covers other listed CUBE frames. That broader model list is not a universal-fit statement. A part shared by several explicitly named bicycles still requires an actual match to the frame in front of the mechanic. Neither the list nor the historical photograph establishes compatibility with a later frame merely because its name also contains Stereo.
Keep the mounting part separate from drivetrain specifications
A derailleur's brand, number of gears or cage length does not replace the frame-side hanger reference. Equally, ART10241 does not tell you which derailleur is presently fitted. If the bike has been modified, inventory the frame mounting part and the installed drivetrain as separate items rather than treating a current derailleur logo as proof of the frame model.
The catalogue image is useful identification evidence, but it does not publish every rear-axle thread dimension or an installation procedure. Do not infer an axle specification from the outline of the hanger. A seller's description of a modern mounting standard is also insufficient unless the exact historical frame is included in a substantiated compatibility statement.
For a service enquiry, photograph the actual hanger, the surrounding dropout and the model identification without dismantling an uncertain assembly just to obtain a picture. Describe what happened: an impact, damaged thread or shifting problem is relevant history, but none alone proves that a new hanger will solve the whole problem. Ask the workshop to inspect the mounting area and the rest of the affected drivetrain.
If a used bicycle is supplied with a spare, keep its packaging and reference with the sale record. A loose metal piece in a tool bag should still be identified before it is relied upon. Confirm the correct supplied hardware and workshop fitting requirements when ordering; the historic table supports the part enquiry, rather than authorising straightening, a guessed tightening value or continued use after damage.
FAQ: Hanger matching
What reference includes Race 500 and Race 500 Nyon?
ART10241 includes the two listed model numbers, 771300 and 771301, on the 2016 table's ninth physical page.
Can the derailleur brand identify this frame part?
No. The catalogue maps the hanger to frame models; the fitted derailleur is a separate component record.
Does a hanger photograph establish axle thread size?
No. The relevant catalogue entry is not a complete rear-axle specification or fitting instruction.
The dealer-enquiry checklist keeps the different identifiers organised. Browse the CUBE owner information for other historical component questions.
