My 11speed free hub is kaput.
Unfortunately it’s off some eBay wheels from a couple of years back.
So I’m struggling to find the correct replacement
I did order one which looked right but isn’t
I can go to LBS I think but don’t really want to pay silly money.
However mail order seems difficult to compare spec
Any suggestions?

Post some pictures, there are only so many out there.

If they were off eBay could be Novatec, Bitex, Chosen etc.

The bearing is missing from the pawl side. I guess it was the bits I collected
The pawl end looks to be 28mm dia
The internal diameter is 12mm

Internals fell apart. When I got it off ,I had a few small ball bearings,a shell in 3 pieces and a mangled something....probably a circlip type thing.

That looks like a Novatec fit one to me.

I ordered a 4 pawl one from eBay a few weeks ago for my Powertap wheel which uses a Novatec body.

They do 12mm and 15mm axle versions so make sure you get the right one.
