Im after replacing the freehub on this hub as its knackered. Problem is I can't find out which freehub to actually order. A quick search on here suggests it's either a commencal or a formula but im unsure what to order, anyone got any clues? It's the stock wheelset off a camber comp so im hoping not to spend a fortune as im after upgrading in the future.

Just bin the whole hub assuming it's the same one off the Pitch, mine got through 4 sets of bearings and 2 freehubs in about 20 rides. Either bite the bullet now and buy a new rear wheel, or ask spesh nicely for a new one (I got one fitted free but haven't ridden it since as I built new wheels rather than waiting for it to fail again).

your local spesh dealer will have (or can get) a freehub list, with pictures so it's easy to get them to order the right one. They are a bit poop but a new one is about £30 to order. It's a formula type and either needs an 11mm hex or a 12mm hex (an 8-11mm adapter comes with)

About £8 per set of SKF bearings (there are only 2 which is why I think they fail so quickly), the freehubs spesh replaced for free.

If its ye sealed bearing one they are hard to get at the moment
