Rise Hydro mech hangers. Is there a worldwide shortage?

Had a small rock flick up under my mech on a climb yesterday which resulted in my mech hanger cracking off. Luckily no other damage, just a ride cut short on a nice day and a bit of a scoot along the road to get back home. Shame we had to pass a pub en route, but that is a whole different story and my head has only now recovered! Now I ordered a mech hanger from Orbea about 6 weeks ago, not long after getting the bike. It still hasn't arrived though it was due yesterday. I thought I would see if any online retailers had any for sale as I will need another now as a spare. Do you think I could find one? Not a chance.

So does anyone happen to know for a secret source of them I am missing. Maybe my Google Fu is weak!

Orbea spares supply seems to be an issue in general. I'm still waiting for seatpost parts I ordered in mid February

To conclude this thread. My LBS where I bought my Rise (Zero Bikes near Ross on Wye) came up trumps and found me a hanger in the shop which was supposed to be for the Orbea Wild FS. It looked almost the same (not quite in fine detail) but I am happy to confirm that it is an identical fitment and works perfectly. And only £15. I had also ordered 2 "proper" Rise hangers from XXcycle in France. They both turned up yesterday so was a pretty good service to be fair and only about 40 euros including postage (with no import duty or VAT to add this end). The hanger I ordered direct from Orbea 8 weeks ago is still just an estimated delivery date that has now been pushed to mid May.
