ProsPerfect fit in every way.

The hub that was on the bike was badly wore and needed to be replaced. I ordered one from SJS and got it in a timely manner all the way to USA. I installed it and it was like a new bike all over again. Fit perfectly did what it was supposed to do, I’m very happy with my purchase.

Hi, Can you tell me if this freewheel hub is compatible with Shimano FH M750? Thanks

By VC

According to Shimano tech docs this will only work if your hub is the FH-750N. SK 18/01/24

By Joel V

I see 2 different answers on this page so I wanted to ask again. I have a 2x9 and want to convert to a 1x11. Thank you!

SJS Customer Service:

Thank you for your enquiry, this will work with an 11spd MTB cassette but not 11spd road.

What freehub

By Terry

16 Jan 2021

I’m trying to find a freehub for shimano hub FH-MC 38A,
STX RC Parallax 8speed.
Do you stock this item

SJS Customer Service:

For the FH-MC38 you need Shimano part 30R 9801.

Sadly we don't stock this freehub as it is now discontinued.

Hub dust cap

By Nikola

05 May 2020

Is it possible to just purchase the dust cap since this is the only part that I need to replace? Could you offer any suggestion for a cap that might fit this hub?

SJS Customer Service:

Hi, unfortunately there is no dust cap listed for the FH-RM40 hub. Thanks

Shimano FH-M475

By R Welch

04 May 2020

Hi. Can you confirm that this item replaces the freehub body on a Shimano FH-M475. The current hub is a 9 speed but running an 11 speed cassette - I need to make sure that there is enough space.
Thanks

SJS Customer Service:

yes RT

Can I safely convert an FH-RM40 to an FH-RM40-8?

By William Smith

02 Mar 2020

I have a wheel set built with an RM40 hub set. The rear is the 7-speed variety. Can I safely install this freehub body to convert the rear hub to the 8-speed model?

SJS Customer Service:

Sorry no, even if it fitted the hub (which it might) it will make the OLN wrong RT 050320

Compatability

By Keith Batley

15 Apr 2016

Will your Shimano FH=RM40=8 Cassette Freehub body work with a 7 speed cassette .The Derailleur is a Shimano ACERA X. The rear hub is a Shimano FH=M475.Thanking you in anticipation of your reply

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

You can use a 7spd cassette with that freehub body, you'll just need to fit a small spacer first. We sell these and they are SJSC part number 3888.

Thanks.

9 Speed Compatibility

By Tim

30 Mar 2014

I have the FH M475 rear hub on a 9 speed cassette. Just wondering if this will fit the 9 speed cassette or just an 8 speed. Thanks.

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

Yes, 8/9 and 10spd all use the same width free-hub body so they can be used only the same hub.

Thanks.

I Need 15 Teeth This One Has 10 Teeth

By Anonymous

09 Jan 2014

I have a Dawes Horizon Plus bike and the hub of my wheel is HB RM40 8 speed. My freehub body has 15 teeth whilst this one appears to have 10 teeth. Do you have a compatible freehub body in stock.

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

The hub code you have provided is for a front hub, the rear would be FH RM40 8. This free hub body is the correct free hub body for the FH RM40 8, which means that your rear hub must not be the FH RM40 8 I'm afraid. If you can find out the correct model of your hub, then I should be able to find the correct replacement free hub.

Thanks.
