Driven by the desire to surpass our existing upgrades.
“Perfection is an assembly of meticulously executed details.”
Our mission goes beyond simply manufacturing components: we design high-precision solutions to enhance and elevate your builds. While our EVO cages and CBB bottom brackets have redefined the smoothness of your drivetrains, our analysis has identified a previously untapped area for optimization: the interface between the frame and the derailleur hanger.
The derailleur hanger is often considered a mere sacrificial component; for us, it's an opportunity for structural refinement.

Engineering our own version of the universal derailleur hanger (UDH) seemed like the obvious next step.
This is the missing link that allows us to maximize the potential of our existing components, guaranteeing unparalleled structural rigidity and alignment precision.

Achieve full ecosystem integration
The evolution of our range towards the universal derailleur hanger is not a coincidence, it's a technical necessity. To maximize the potential of our oversized cages and pulleys, we needed to master the connection that supports them.
The core idea behind this development was to design the perfect complement to our derailleur cage by leveraging the strategic interface offered by the UDH standard. By becoming the natural extension between the frame and the drivetrain, this component completes the Nova Ride experience, establishing total mechanical synergy.
Enjoy complete consistency—materials, finishes, and colors—all from a single source. Nothing replaces the elegance of a perfectly harmonized bike.

Millimeter-precise development
Beyond product design, the success of this project rests on a rigorous Research and Development approach, marked by the creation of dozens of prototypes subjected to intensive testing protocols, where every technical decision is validated.
Between guillotine-style test benches and intensive validations on road and gravel terrain, each iteration has been tested to achieve the perfect balance between structural rigidity, lightness, and aesthetics. Far from any approximation, our solutions are the result of precise technical choices where every lever activated aims for total synergy between pure performance and unwavering reliability.
Uncompromising technical mastery
We have made a deliberate choice to continue using our premium materials and time-honored manufacturing processes. This expertise allows us to fully exploit the mechanical properties of our components, guaranteeing a superior level of finish and detail.
Machined entirely from 7075 aluminum, our parts ensure surgically smooth indexing. The structure is specifically designed to dissipate energy in the event of an impact, creating a veritable shield around your derailleur. Finally, the mechanical stability of this alloy ensures perfect thread tightness, eliminating any risk of loosening due to constant vibrations from the terrain.

Excellence is not exclusive
While our version of the UDH maximizes the performance of Nova Ride components, it is first and foremost an optimized universal standard. It replaces your original part on any build, offering superior stiffness for anyone seeking precision, regardless of their current equipment.
Whether you're using other oversized derailleur cages or keeping your original drivetrain, this part integrates seamlessly into your setup.



Optimize your build
This new model in the Nova Ride range is designed exclusively for UDH-compatible frames. Available in two versions depending on your derailleur model, it utilizes the universal mount, thus offering easy integration.

Direct Mount Hanger UDH for Shimano

Derailleur Hanger UDH for Sram
Other compatibilities
In addition to our current range, we've designed several specific derailleur hangers. These models aren't yet part of our permanent catalog, but your enthusiasm could change that! If these three options generate significant interest, we'll consider their official release.
Note for manufacturers: we're also ready to develop custom Direct Mount solutions tailored to your needs.
