The forward motion on my sun ringle demon (3months old) not engaging. They won't warranty as received as part of a warranty claim and now out with a year.
Don't fancy, £60 for a replacement freehub which is not in stock anywhere!
Is the free hub servicible?
Thanks
Alan
Most freehubs are serviceable (ie you can strip down and rebuild) one way or another, even throwaway shimano ones ( you need a particular tool or make your own) but usually its such a faff that you are better off buying a new one ( i recenly repaired a shimano-type loose ball one that was out of stock as a replacement and i would have gladly coughed up for a new one instead if i could have, it was a right mission!).
From this pinkbike thread it looks as yours might be one that is a lot easier to do.

However removable does not necessarily mean repairable if you have broken pawls, ratchet ring or other gubbins and ey are not available as spares. And failure after 3months would have me fearing something broken rather than it being full of dirt and gummed up after relatively little use. Also worth finding out if the hub is the same as anyone else's: a lot of nice hubs are still made by the same factory as other brands and share parts and even identical hubs are out there with just different names on them. So some other brands freehub or parts may also fit.
