Hello
Newbe here
I've a 2012 Whyte T120, love it to bits, but my rear hub is giving me grief, the cassette body (or driver, what ever you want to call it) bearings are not happy, i've had it all apart and re lubed it all and am happy ish with it but i'm sure i'll have to replace it soon ish, or at least change the bearings.
The hub has a 12 mm maxal and sram cassette, 10 speed, whyte's own hub.
My question is, what's the best upgrade or replacement, having a look around it's a minefield.
Please help a lost hub in need.

Work out the bearing size - should be engraved on the bearings, and buy new ones.
Good place to start is Katec bearings on Ebay.I don't do smileys.

Nope. A freehub is a freehub is a freehub. There are no other names. Unless the bit you're referring to is not the freehub.
Have a read through Parktools.
