Novatec freehub body
Which freehub bodies a Novatec wheel takes and how to choose the right one for your cassette.
Available freehub bodies
- Shimano HG (8–11s)
- SRAM XD
- SRAM XDR
- Shimano Micro Spline
- Campagnolo (10–12s)
How to choose
Cassette standard + the hub's 'compatibility type'. HG 11s is backward-compatible with 8/9/10s using a spacer; 12s requires XD/XDR/Micro Spline. N3W does not appear to be offered.
⚠️ Mind the model
Identify the hub type from its code (B/D = 15 mm axle, A2 = 12 mm axle). Many Novatec hubs are rebranded OEM: start from the model code.
Novatec official spec
The definitive answer for your exact model is on the manufacturer's website. Always check there before buying.
