Yes. There is a tool to bend it back to alignment. Any shop will have it, if you don’t want to buy one. Either way, yours may break during alignment, as they are meant to break to protect the frame and derailleur. Just in case, buy a spare at [derailleurhanger.com](http://derailleurhanger.com) .

You can probably get away with bending it back by eye in the meantime; however, it will require an alignment, or new derailleur.

Yup….. Should be parallel to the cassette cogs….
Stick a chunky 5mm Allen key in there and bend it back gently.

And it’s always worth having a spare!

Do you have a hanger alignment tool? You will need to align the new hanger once installed.
Very yes!
