Anyone have a close up of a hope xc freehub removed showing the bearing seated at the pawl end?
No pics, but I'll give you a clue.. There's a circlip holding the inner bearing in. You've got to remove the outer bearing first by moving the spacer to one side and drifting it out.

Ha ha thanks for that folks! But........I am actually fitting new bearings and have already removed the old ones(along with the circlip) but wanted to check how far in the pawl end bearing sits. There seems to be a small gap left and I couldn't remember if thats correct or not. So if you could 180 your freehub and show me the pawl end bearing from the other side then that would be great.
Cheers
If the circlip seats into the grrove then the bearing is in far enough.

you can't see anything from the other end, it's too dark, and too narrow to get any light in!

exactly 🙂
