Frequency Freehub Body Kit

Out of a tight switchback on a steep singletrack climb, the rear wheel has to catch the instant the pedal moves, and the WTB Frequency Freehub Body Kit handles that with six pawls that take hold in two alternating groups of three. WTB rates Frequency hubs at 5 degrees of engagement with that layout, which keeps pickup quick whether the wheel carries a gravel tire or a mountain bike tire. The kit serves as a replacement freehub body, taking the original’s place on a WTB rear hub.

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“I match the hub family first, because this kit fits Frequency and Frequency Comp hubs alike, and a Comp wheel ends up with six pawls in place of its original four. Moving between drivetrain standards on the same hub works too, but I check the end cap before ordering, since Shimano Micro Spline uses a different end cap kit than SRAM XDR and Shimano HGR.”
