What possible freehub body replacements are there for a sunringle dirty flea? Original part# is EH0910T. I can't seem to find an equivalent, an am unaware of other 9/10 speed bodies with the same interface. Called Hayes and no one answered...

I believe the flea hubs (flea, jumping flea, dirty flea etc) are all the same hub internals wise, and are the same genetics as the stans 3.30 and spank oozy hubs.

Not well, if it all. Even if it does work, it'd create a weak point in the chain, leading to eventual failure at that point.

Basically, get the correct connecting pin and you'll be fine.

Hey guys I’m trying to buy a 160mm air shaft for a Pike but all the new debonair air shafts are sold out. What isn’t sold out is the older generation debonair but this one says it’s for A1 and A2 2014-2017 Pikes. Mine is a 2019 and these air shafts look identical. Is there any reason why I can’t use that?

I have a 160mm airshaft from a 2016 pike, not sure if it'll fit, but if it does, PM me, more than happy to send it over. Somld my bike with the pike on it, so its just spare parts, just gotta dig it up from the pile of spare parts

What kind of crankset? It depends, some need a puller, some just unscrew (my Raceface ones), others are overly complex and annoying.

What cranks? Which part is fighting you? If it's a self extraction bolt on a splined interface more torque is your solution.

Nope, only difference between older and newer debonair are the longer seal head and longer footnut on the newer design. If you buy the older style and then swap the sealhead and footnut from you existing spring onto it, you will have the latest spec debonair spring in 160mm.
