Compatible Freehub Body
Squawk
Posts: 132
I managed to break my freehub body while reattaching the cassette at the weekend, and my complete ignorance means I have no clue about compatible replacements.
I have a Trek 7.3 FX 2013 which, according to the Evans website, has the following hub:
Shimano RM30 aluminium, 9 speed
I can't find a replacement for that anywhere, and I can't find anything that claims compatibility. Can anyone advise on a replacement, preferably from Evans since I have one a 200m away and any saving I'd make online will be offset by the train costs while I wait for it to arrive.
Cheers

I actually bought and fitted that one from Evans yesterday. I hadn't realised I could stick a 9 speed cassette on an 8 speed free hub body until a couple of hours after I posted.
Thanks though

8/9/10 are all the same width for shimano and SRAM. Just the shimano 10 only that is different 11spd is totally different though.
There is a topic about it in the Tech FAQs."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
