    Just stripped down the freehub on my crossride's. Anyway i was wondering if it's better when rebuilding it to go for the standard pack it full of grease strategy? Or to keep the grease in the freehub area to a minimum so as it doesn't stick the pawls?

    All opinions welcome.

    Keep it clear of the pawls I think.

    Right further to my question. Having done some research around the web i've found an answer & the answer is for mavic hubs/freewheels there should be no grease put anywhere near the freehub at all. Just mineral oil. I found the following to be of help Video 1, video 2, Mavic technical website, technical construction PDF

    Hope this may help someone else later on that's looking for the same info. As it took me a while to find all of those links.
