The hub does what it's suppose to do but I also have found the nylon bushing to be a slight issue. Besides using mineral oil I've used a small amount of Phil Wood grease on the bushing . Seems to prolong the life of the hub. When the bushing wore down a little I'd get a little play in the cassette and it would make a little knock , knock noise when cranking but the grease took care of it .
I bought a new Freehub Body when I started hearing a weird clicking noise coming from my 2009 Mavic Ksyrium Elite wheels. The plastic bushing was worn from age. Ordered this hub body replacement instead of trying to replace just the bushing, as I didn't want to risk damaging the splines inside the old hub body. The install was easy and my 2009 wheel feels like new!
I purchased a NOS 2003 ssc sl wheelset with a campy record 10sp cassette on it. Beauty of a wheelset and rare in this condition. Needed it to be shimano 10 speed. You will need a spacer behind the cassette in most cases when going from ed10 to m10 or m11. Changed out the pawls from the ed10 to this m10 and was up and running. Just beware of the pawls and springs flying out and getting lost. Did the work on an old white bed sheet and that saved me. hehe
Simple conversion needed from Shimano hub to 11 speed Campy. Installed and use on Mavic 40C wheel. Price was significantly less than LBS and ALL other online bike shops and eBay. Install took all of 8 minutes.
fast easy replacement. Replace one with 9000 miles on it. Bushing had a little play and would knock ever so lightly. Just keep it cleaned and oiled and should last another 9000
Very easy change over from 10spd to 11spd
Good old Mavic FH Body, if U keep it clean it will last a long time.
All I've ever ridden on for years. With proper maintenance they last a long time. Won't use anything else.
I love that Mavic continues to use steel for their cassette carrier, I wish they would just change to a standard bearing instead of the plastic ring that interfaces the hub. There is just to much drag with this set up and wears quickly.
After 50,000 kms the nylon bushing had enough wear to make the cassette on the hub unstable. Once replaced the freehub body was nice and tight on the hub...like new. Great deal at 70 dollars.
My freehub was making a very loud noise on descents when freewheeling. Seems when the bearing surface wears down it can cause this problem. Tried cleaning it first, but the noise came back. This new hub fixed the issue!
I had never worked on a Mavic wheel, never really had the need to. One of the most simplest swap outs I've done in years.
