Where can i buy this freehub body 8 speed cassette?
Hi all
This is my first time in the forum, i have an Alex R500 wheel and the freewheel sounds very rough. I am sure the freehud body need to be replaced but i cannot find a similar one on the web. There is nothing printed on the hub, I think is a "Formula" hub because the original skewer is a "Formula". I took it off using an 11 allen key . Also I emailed to "formula" but i did not get any answer back.
I attached some pictures.
Please help.

Hello,
8sp/9sp/10sp hubs are all the same width, so you would have to find a modern one to fit this hub. In all honesty though these look like generic hubs supplied on a allez or base model giant etc...is that correct?
If so it might be worth just replacing the whole wheel (iknow it seems a waste!) as a new cassette body will not be cheap, even if you can find one. This is £58 for tiagra hub, mavic rim, better quality and suitable replacement.

Hi
The bike is a GT series 5, i agree about your suggestion, i will see if i can buy new wheels.0 -
I hate thowing things away which could be repaired, and I generally would not say that! ...but for the time/effort to find a replacement, then purchase the new freehub which is maybe going to cost £30+ ....it just make more sense to spend £60 on a good replacement.0
