I wish I had found this video before ordering my new wheels 😂, Ive been riding bikes for years and didn't fully understand this 😂

Thanks again for another clear and practical explanation.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Outstanding!!

Finally a video that explains it in such a simple way. Thank you very much for making this.

Great short video. Very informative for us the new bloods in the game.

this is exactly what i was looking for! next week I'm going from 2*10 speed to 1*12 and now i'm sure it will fit :) thanks

Well and clearly explained! All the information that I need is here, thanks bro!

You are the GURU of freehubs! Thank you for a simple explanation.

Thank you for your instructional video because I made the mistake by ordering a 12 speed deore cassette and didn't read that it was micro spline so instead of changing out my drive I'm sending it back and my local bike shop has a Sram PG 1230 12 speed cassette. Thanks again for your great instructional videos. Stay blessed and safe.

Thanks for this video man! I just bought an XD Freehub for my GX Eagle cassette and I was concerned that it said "11-speed" in the spec. I freaked out for about 5 mins until I ran into your video :)

Finally someone answers the question of converting my 3x10 to a 1x12! Been researching for quite a while and was giving up going to a 12 speed with my current wheel until this. I've been wanting to convert my 2012 Trek Rumblefish 29er to a 1x and now it appears with the right 12 speed groupset, it should be easy. Thanks!

@OriginalFallofMind

Keep in mind new bikes are also set up with geometry for 1x. Just because you can doesn't mean it will be right. Off chain lines can cause chain drops, excessive and premature wear on components. BB and crank width plays an important role. Chain guides and early narrow/wide sprockets were only temporary bandaids to technology, not solutions.

Great explanation, m still using free hub style 11-50 tooth gear

you just read my mind..you know the answer..good job.

Absolutely THANK YOU

The idea with HG cassette core was to move the bearings from the middle of the HUB to be more closely as possible to the dropouts. It was very common in the time of "free wheels" cogset to have the axle bent. Unigllide and then HyperGlide manage to fix that problem. XD and MicroSpline moves the drive side bearing far from the dropouts. From an engineering point of view this is a step back. HyperGlide is a superior design. XD and MicroSpline works because now we have better materials than we had 30 years ago and the axle is an oversized pass though. But the only real benefit of XD and MicroSpline is the 10T cog: nothing more, nothing less. No wonder the only solution for 135mm QR is the FH-MT500, and maybe this is going to be the less reliable MicroSpline HUB in the lineup (but id does have a oversized axle, tough).

@@LoveMTB you are right on XD, but on Shimano MicroSpline Freehubs the bearing its in the same position as the cassette core pawls, far away from the dropout. Thank you for your videos. On one of your videos I saw that the MicroSpline Aluminium core gets bites from the cassette: that's another drawback for the new system.

Hi, I have a question to the bike marlin6 (2019) like the one in your videos, can i put the micro spliene without changing the entire mass?( It is the best video I have seen explaining this) thanks

The reason Shimano is using the older style free hub on the Deore 12 speed system is so that those that have older bikes can upgrade to 12 speed without tossing out a working hub. Makes perfect sense to me. You have an older bike you choose Deore. Anything newer you go with XT or XTR.

This vidoe is great

I have the Deore M6100 rear derailleur\cassette combo and can confirm that it DOES use the new Microspline standard :)

Shimano now makes FH-MT500, a QR micro spline compatible freehub for those of us still riding QR frames. As far as I know it is the only QR micro spline rear hub on the market.

What can you tell me about that very last wheel you touch in the video? The Roval. I have a boosted wheel that looks just like this one and I want to upgrade to micro spline but I have no idea who makes a hub that would suit it. Any help would be appreciated.

Your videos are so good. I was wondering, do you have a video about the selection of new parts for a new bike? I am considering sram 12 speed vs shimano 12 speed.

Thank you

Very helpful ! It was near impossible to find information on converting my 1990 mountain bike which has a Shimano 3x 6 speed. I ordered a new freehub that is 135 mm to rebuild my wheels that will support the Shimono 11S. So my plan is to put the teagra 4700 group set (2x10) on this bike and convert it to a gravel bike. I had a hard time understanding free hub compatibility and if I understood your video correctly this will work perfectly.

@@LoveMTB I am still confused on whether MTB and Road Freehubs are exactly the same length. Is the MTB freehub 2mm shorter (narrower) than the Road Freehub?? Or, do all Older style freehubs come in the same length whether MTB or Road? If the MTB freehub is 2mm shorter that means I can run an MTB 11s Cassette on the Road freehub (with a spacer), but not run an 11s Road Cassette on a MTB Freehub (as the cassette would be 2mm too long). I could not find any other videos that explained this like you did. Thank you!!

@@LoveMTB Last and final question. You just don't know how helpful this has been! Where can I order a replacement "road" freehub (just the slotted hub part only, not the whole assembly. I would assume that I could remove the MTB hub part (not sure what you call that) and replace it with a Road hub that is 2mm longer.

Would you say that the new Deore 12s 6100 series is the main feature of the 3 new Deore? Im judging it based on the microspline technology which they only applied on the 12s, not on 11s nor 10s.

So I can fit 12 speed sram sx or nx to my 2018 marlin 6 stock freehub, right?

Which hub is required by the AdventX Derailleur+cogs? The old Shimano? In the past, I read that it used a freewheel.

Much Much Much Much appreciate. This is exactly the information I am looking for answers. I am building my own bicycle now and with modern technology. things changed and new things came up, making things a lot more complicate when purchasing parts. I m very worried to buy rear gear group since there are freewheel and cassette types. The wheel I purchased is using spine type (old model), meaning I have to avoid buying free wheel (which is like the SRAM XD hub) type gear group........ with your information, now I know I can still use SRAM, but need to select the NX line.

There are a lot of videos saying it can be installed, some says I will need to file the base of cassette body a bit, and some draw a picture saying there will be a need about 7 mins in total for 11 speed gear group....... The frame I purchased was designed for 10 speed... And... I have been searched online... Seems.... Go with 11 speed is just the difference of 16 teeth been spouted into 15 and 18 teeth gears. Go with 11 just sound cool.... But go with 10 speed is not bad as well since the speed of 16 T is not much different from 15T... Well.... But 18T does help a bit in shallow ascending slope....
