WKNDWRRR Posted June 27, 2021 Share Hi. Does anyone know where I can buy a set of replacement pawls and spring for a Shimano HG Freehub Body? Ideally locally in Cape Town. Through a combination of stupidity on my part and bad luck (don't ask) I have lost one of the pawls and I really don't want to replace the whole freehub because of one pawl. I've attached a few pics for reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryS Posted June 27, 2021 Share What brand is the hub? Just remember that the pawls are specific to the brand of hub and not to the driver body type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, I was not aware of that. I've had a look and cannot see any text or serial numbers anywhere on the freehub body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alouette3 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Check for branding on the actual hub and not the freebody Edited June 28, 2021 by Alouette3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bike is a Silverback Stratos AL3 and the hubs are listed as 'Sealed Bearing Hubs' on their website. Looking at pics online it looks a lot like the DT Swiss hub & freebody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterbean Posted June 28, 2021 Share Contact Silverback, they're now in stellenbosch. They will either be able to assist with what exact spares you need, or could even possible assist with some spares in a box or whatever... They're really helpful.

I'll do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WKNDWRRR Posted July 2, 2021 Share Resolution update: Silverback SA are the bomb!! I sent them a mail asking for advice, received a call from Robert within 10 minutes. Had a quick conversation. Replacement Freehub arrived from them in the post the next day, free of charge. Truly exceptional service! dirtypot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
