[ Toysfun Cycling ] how to service koozer hub freebody pawl xm490

[@nothingintheremeow5739]

Do you recomended the koozer xm390 for a heavy trail and hard riding i see the axle on xm390 seem thicker and the bearing bigger

[@asotnes]

all market hub r more for cross country, if want heavy stuf, go for x cobra or those chromoly steel axle type

[@AdriNat101]

Can you review or share any opinion on the koozer BM440. Thanks.

[@asotnes]

HI, nothing special about bm440. the only different is the weight they state 440gram but normally it should weight 450-460gram. the freehub still same like xm490. only this model categories in Boost hub front 110mm rear 148mm.

Where can get the waterproof grease?

[@darioquiroz6221]

Very easy to clean!! Do you recommend this hub? is it durable?

[@asotnes]

yes, new generation hub are almost all this structure, easy cleaning. for my opinion, as long as you take care the internal pawl n ratchet n bearing with anti rust grease from time to time, it can last very long time. some more they do sale the free body only, free body is easily replaceable. For a hub that decently works well n also support thru axle with low affordable price, this hub are rank in top list. if u just look for a normal QR type, can go for chosen or fastace ect

[@vvvkkkgggwww]

I see that the drum hub is in good condition, how many km have arrived? Do you have a cassette on an aluminum spider?

[@asotnes]

Hi, this is actually a quite new hub, only the corrosive mud water has caused the internal rusting. sory i don know wat is a aluminium spider

[@khanhmytran2321]

Which is better: xm490 vs xm490pro?

[@asotnes]

They r both same hub, no different,

[@khanhmytran2321]

Do you know what is bearing brand does nobatec d042sb has? And does this hub will last for many year with clean and repack grease ragularly?

[@AzeemKhan-vk7lo]

@@asotnes there is a difference, it's the Axle material. AL vs. CR-MO

[@sekorak]

Hi, which is better? Koozer XM490 or the XM470? Or the new XM480?

[@asotnes]

i don know about 480 490 and 470 are not same range hub 490 design for cross country, 470 design with star ratchet system with stronger freewheel force 490 will be faster in speed, 470 will be stronger in energy apply to drivetrain 490 good enuf for average riding, 470 good for heavy rider with lot of uphill riding 490 cheaper easy to maintain, 470 dificult n expensive to maintain 490 everage sound but with mod it could be xtra loud, 470 very loud sound hope this help

[@sekorak]

@@asotnes tq for the help. In term of durability which is more durable. My bad, not XM480 it is MF480.

[@asotnes]

@@sekorak if both use for normal riding both durability will b the same, if your body weight bit heavy n use for lot of uphill then 470 will be more durable, for 480 i don have one in hand, but looking at photo online they look almost identical to 470, my opinion is they are likely the same hub with just slightly alter in appearance

[@sekorak]

@@asotnes tq again for the nice info bro..
