3 miles into a ride with my 8 y/o. Sometimes I think I pack too much for our rides, but today these just-in-case tools saved us. Was able to limp back out. Now a backup derailleur hanger is part of my bag.
Chain breaker and spare quick links are definitely a part of the minimal kit for me. Saved me too many times to ever go without. Even road rides.

Had a similar freak experience like that. A stick or rock kicked up into my derailleur and knocked it into the spokes. Pulled a spoke completely out of the wheel and I came to a skidding halt

That is…less than optimal.

My bike has a spare hanger built into it. Probably will never need it because it’s there. 😂

I have the same Crank Brothers multi-tool. I love that thing.
