    Buy a derailleur hanger, they're about €20.

    I assume your frame is not designed with a hanger at all. In that case you are probably stuck with something the the Shimano Tourney derailleur:

    http://www.amazon.com/Shimano-RD-TX71-Rear-Derailleur-Hanger/dp/B001GSMSVO/ref=pd_sbs_sg_8

    There is a small fixing screw that keeps it in place when the wheel is not attached, if you don't have a thread for that screw it will make things difficult. When the wheel is bolted on the derailleur should stay in place, but aligning it and taking off the wheel will be messy.

    Tried looking online but can only find it on an American Website http://www.amazon.com/SunRace-Index-Hanger-Shimano-compatible/dp/B001PT8M8C
    I got mine from my LBS, it was in the Shimano catalogue and he ordered it for me.
