I'm not sure which one it could be since I don't know what the original looks like.
If anybody has a picture of it so I can compare that would be GREAT!
Please send a picture to supersetup@hotmail.com
Thanks!

Should be k2 part #14492

Go to http://www.k2bikes.com

Hit the Tech Library button and scroll down

Highlight 'Derailleur Hangers' and download the PDF

page two on the lower right hand side shows part 14492 for all 95, 96 and 97 world cup frames

They sell them in the parts store at the site but are out periodically - 12$ or so -
contact them directly at the site or call them - they were very helpful when I bought some hangers.

Thanks for the help so far Guys!

The actual hanger I’m looking for is for a K2 Proflex 3000 it looks similar to a 957. Is it the same bike? I’m thinking of picking up this frame but it needs a hanger, so if I can get a hanger I’ll get the bike. Its hanger # RK011. Does this look right?

Sorry I can't add pictures or a working link for some reason

Thanks for the help!

Yes, the 957 and 3000 use the same hanger.

Don't know about the 856, but the 957 hanger also fits the Oz and Evo swingarms.
