I adjusted the indexing cable to wrong direction, ended up getting the derailleur stuck in the wheel and bent off. I am a moron, I know.

Now, I obviously need to replace the derailleur hanger, how about the chain and can you see any damage on the rest of the derailleur? The pulleys spin just fine, cable seems fine. Is there any specific damage I should look for?

    I would replace the derailleur since straightening any part of it that’s bent probably won’t work that well and buying replacement parts is probably as expensive as replacement if this is 10 speed or below. Can’t say anything about the chain without inspecting every link. Need a new derailleur hanger of course and for someone to ensure it’s straight.
