I wish boyd would make the titanium version for the altamonts will it be compatible with the altamonts??
You can extend the useful life of the Al freehub body by occasionally filing down any ridges that are raised up by the cassette gouging into it. This assures that you won't have future trouble removing the cassette. The trick is to not wait too long the first time. Problem is that after a while there won't be enough spline left to keep the cogs from rotating. That will take a while though, but still just be careful to only take off the tops of the gouges. Also I wouldn't want to advise you to do anything that would void the warranty on your hubs/wheels.
