Abstract
A single point resilient and adjustable mount for a derailler which allows the rear derailler unit which supports and moves the roller cage to be flexibly and adjustably attached to the holding bracket attached to the axle and frame of the bicycle and which has a single adjustment for allowing the derailler unit to be angularly moved relative to the bracket so as to prevent bending of the bracket and derailler and easy and simple adjustment of the derailler.

A rear derailler for a bicycle having a rear wheel attached to its frame, comprising a bracket attached to the frame of the bicycle adjacent the rear wheel, a derailler member movably attached to said bracket member and flexibly biased away from the plane of the rear wheel, such that upon the application of a force transverse to the plane of the rear wheel acting on said derailler member, the derailler member can move about said bracket and toward the rear wheel, so as to prevent damage to the derailler.
