Okay, so that sort of performance doesn't come cheap.. Usually. If you're okay with mediocre-ish engagement, there are some cheaper SS hubs out there, or if you can get lucky and find a Halo DJD SupaDrive, that seems like it'll be your best bet.

Here are some options for high-engagement hubs (nobody makes a high-engagement freewheel in a size that will work well with your front sprocket):

  • Novatec D252SB-BO-AA: 40~ish PoE/9 degrees (don't recall exactly what the sales rep told me but it's in that ballpark). I just got one directly from Novatec for $84.95 US, plus shipping. It's nothing to write home about, but it will allow you to use a 12t cog like this one. Engagement on it is decent but not amazing. The freehub body is aluminum, so make sure to use a wide-base cog.

  • Hope Pro 4 Trials/SS: 88 PoE/ 4 degrees. These hubs are bombproof and modular. If you ever decide to put it on a different bike, you can adapt it to 135x10mm, 135x12mm or 142x12mm through-axles. It's also QR compatible out of the box. I had this hub before and loved it. Average price online is $200 US. Freehub body is steel, so you shouldn't have to worry about getting a wide-base cog.

  • Halo DJD SupaDrive: 120PoE/3 degrees ($180-$250... IF you can find it): This one would probably be your best bet, since Halo sells drivers for it ranging from 10t to 16t... IF you can find a store that has it in stock/can get it.

  • Profile Classic SS: 48 PoE/ 7.5 degrees. For $252 before shipping, I honestly couldn't recommend this hub over a Pro 4 Trials or the Novatec SS hub.

  • Industry 9 Torch SS: 120 PoE/3 degrees. These things are nukeproof in their own right, with 6 pawls and 3 teethlets to each pawl, there's no way this thing is ever going to slip out on you. It also breaks the bank at $400 US shipped, but that's the price of this sort of performance. Freehub body is aluminum, so once again make sure to grab a wide-base cog.

  • Profile Elite SS: 204 PoE/ 1.75 degrees. Because let's face it, if you're going to go all out, you might as well go all out. $475 shipped.

    Keep in mind these prices are all pulled directly from manufacturer's websites or from CRC, and are only for the hub, not including spokes, cog and rim.

Hey man thanks for the reply! So I did end up ordering the YT Dirt Love last night just because I have the money saved up and I'm trying to get back into biking full time as one of my hobbies(Instead of staying in my house cave 24/7) so I decided to splurge and treat myself a bit.

I did actually look at the P3 Pro( Did I mention my dirt jumper I've had around that I inheriteda few years ago is a 09 p3? :D) but I couldn't really find it for sale anywhere since they dont have a 2019 model of it. I almost decided to just go with the normal p3 but it was out of stock on specialized website. So at the end of the day I figured what the heck and just went with the dirt love and ordered some knock off pedals off amazon for $30 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DHHR1FZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

So yeah can't wait to get it and assembled and go for a ride!

If the remaining chainring is a ramped one with ramps to make the chain shift easier, you might need something to keep it on. Since you already have a bashguard you can put one of these dog tooth things on the other side. https://www.amazon.com/Origin8-Origiin8-Chain-Deflector-Black/dp/B07BZP91ZL
