Last year, I bought these carbon wheels https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005005969769234.html?pdp_npi=3%40dis%21USD%21%21%E2%82%AC%20230%2C39%21%21%21%21%21%40211b629217721793585826751ece25%21%21im%21%21&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu (https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005005969769234.html?pdp_npi=3%40dis%21USD%21%21%E2%82%AC%20230%2C39%21%21%21%21%21%40211b629217721793585826751ece25%21%21im%21%21&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu)
on AliExpress for a very cheap price. I treated them harshly, riding a lot in rain and salty conditions. Now the bearings needed replacement. The ones in the hub were easy to remove, but for the love of God, I just can’t get the freehub bearings out. Has anyone experienced a similar struggle or knows if there are compatible freehub bodies available on AliExpress? Unfortunately, the seller is not very helpful also.
the freehub body is a 3 pawl system Shimano HG 11speed.
