WTB: Older 4-pawl Phil Wood Freehub - Shimano
Hey!
Does anyone have an older version of the Phil Wood Shimano free hub with a 4-pawl system? If you're not sure, luckily removing Phil freehubs to check how many pawls your freehub has can be done by hand without tools!
I have a set of hubs with a Campagnolo Exa Drive 8 speed free hub, that pairs with a 20-tooth ratchet. Phil can update the hub to a modern free hub with their current 5 pawl/40-tooth ratchet, but it requires unlacing the wheel and shipping the hub for an expensive overhaul. I'd like to avoid that if I can.
Here are some photos of the setup if you want to compare yours: https://share.icloud.com/photos/04a2...S_P3y6-fXR2BFg
If I can't find an affordable solution these hubs may be up for sale for those interested. Or I may find an exa drive cassette and find a bike for these.
