Update: My rear derailleur hanger snapped off on the Seymour grind last Thursday
Honestly, I had to walk my bike down the last 3km in the rain after it bent into the spokes near the Baden-Powell trailhead, so has anyone found a good shop in North Van for a quick hanger replacement?

Feeling your pain on that one man. Walking your bike down in the rain is the worst, especially after a long day on the Seymour grind. I snapped a hanger at the bottom of Fromme last fall and had to limp it to the parking lot with the wheel rubbing, so I know how frustrating that whole situation is. Endless Biking is solid for quick repairs, they usually have a good stock of common hangers and can pop one on fast since they're right there at the base. Cove Bikes in Deep Cove is also worth a shout, they might have one in stock if Endless is busy. That Baden-Powell section can be brutal with the rocks and roots, so it's honestly impressive you made it as far as you did before the hanger gave out.

Did you check out Endless Biking, since they're right there on the mountain?

Honestly I went with them for a skills clinic last year. Their guides really helped me clean up my cornering on those exact trails. Made a huge difference in my confidence up there.
