Hey 🙂
I wanted to install a big microspline cassette on my DT E1800 Wheel where the right freehub was installed.
Now the ordered one on the left seems to have too big claws
Did i ordered the wrong one? Are the smaller MS Hubs who would fit in my wheel?

Hope you ordered a DW Swiss MS freehub
The new one doesn’t look like any DT Swiss freehub that I’m aware of. Seems like you ordered the wrong one.
Freehub bodies have standard sizes in terms of how a cassette fits to it (Hyperglide, Microspline, Xd, Xdr), but are not standardized at the ratchet interface between the freehub body and the hub itself. You need the right one not just for your brand, but for your specific model of hub. If you just buy a freehub body off the internet it will not work.
I believe that new DT Swiss E1800 wheelsets come with a DT Swiss 370 hub that already has the Ratchet LN upgrade, but your photo looks like it has the older 3 pawl freehub.
At this point you may as well just buy the 370 ratchet upgrade kit (which comes with a freehub body). You can get them with a microspline body and it will upgrade your points of engagement. They are around $120.
Check to make sure you actually have a 370 hub first.
