I was wondering if this is normal? I got my first carbon wheels yesterday. I had to change the freehub from shimano to sram xdr. The hubs are dt swiss 240 exp. I can’t seem to figure that out if this should be like that? The wheels are rolling backwards ones I engage the pedals backwards?

It’s totally normal. It’s due to a little bit of friction in the bearing seals.
Better off checking if the hub doesn’t drag when going forwards but not pedalling. That could cause a dropped chain. It would probably bed in after a while anyway.
