    To expand, I use an on-one wide base cog (I forget its name) on a Hope alloy freehub and it doesn’t dig in or gouge or anything.

    Edit – aye, that’s it – Groove Armada.

    Gusset Double SIx – 7mm wide base, available in wide range of sizes and around £12.

    Used them for years and they wear very well.

    I have seen even wide based cogs chew through alloy freehub bodies.

    As it turns out, changing the axle adaptors meant the freehub was a doddle to replace for the steel one… So I did.

    Now if only I could find the 135×10 qr to go with…..
