At the risk of being pointed directly at something I could have easily googled myself...
Anyone know about replacement freehub for the boost + wheels they punted out a couple of years ago?

Hey,

As far as I know they are identical to Stans Neo hubs, I certainly replaced the pawls & springs on my El Guapo hubs with them no probs.

I’ve had mine rebuilt a couple of times by my lbs I think they got the spares from Paligap.

Cheers chaps!

Haha, no. I’ve got the same plus sized wheels you’ve got and the hub was bombproof for a couple of years, it survived a couple of puffers and winters of slop but when it finally went it totally collapsed. It’s been fine since the rebuilds.

Thanks again chaps. Bearings from simply bearings, pawls and springs from bikemonger - Stan's neo as described, though there's 6 in a set, only 4 required for the el guapo, so buy 2, get one free. 👍
