Hi everyone,
A couple rides ago, I had poor shifting and noticed that my sunrace cassette was loose (on dt350 hub). Tightened the lockring when I got home and everything seemed fine. A couple rides later the same thing happened, and when I got home I removed the cassette and noticed chips on the edge of the freehub body. The smallest cog seems to be digging into the freehub body and doesn't have much engagement.
What would have caused this? Is my freehub body toast?
Thanks in advance

Normal for aluminium freehub body. Take a flat file and smooth out the area where the cassette has bit into the freehub. Edit: if the smallest cog is bottoming out and the locking cannot fully tighten the cassette then you need a spacer behind the largest cog of the casette.
The smallest cog should lock onto the other cogs in the cassette, maybe it wasn’t seated properly? Maybe your lock ring came loose and allowed the small cog to slip out of the cassette partially and catch on the freehub body?
Thats an adaptor that fits over your actual freehub. Is this a sunrace cassette?
