Loan it to 230 lb strong like bull beginner rider.
Watch said rider crash on derailleur side.
5 minutes later, see derailleur shift into rear wheel and frag the chain, bend the wheel, break the hanger and derailleur.
Realize that in prior crash, derailleur was bent ever so slightly in to allow for above disaster.
Realize that spare hanger in your pack is not the correct one for the bike despite coming in the box with the bike.
Get home and fix it all.
Up and running again thanks to quick work on Devin's part. New chain, new hanger, I thought the derailluer was okay, but it works like crap despite appearing adjusted on the workstand, so I switched it out for a spare that works fine.
From now on newbie riders are riding the SS. They have enough to worry about to add shifting into the mix.
