Just spent ages prying a cassette off the freehub on my DH bike - had dug itself inro the alloy freehub and wedged solid.

Are there not-crazy-money road freehubs with alloy carriers or are they all liek that for size reasons?

If it's a Hope hub you can get a replacement steel free hub which is ([url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/hope-pro2-steel-freehub-body-wear ]supposedly![/url]) much tougher.

Road cassettes?

Shimano 105 had an alloy carrier on the top 3 or 4 sprockets. I think Ultegra has one or two more on the alloy carrier.

Much like Shimano XT and SLX.
