Answered Will my Hope Pro 4 hub take a Sram NX PG-1230 be removing the XD Driver?

[The Flying Dutchman]

I'm replacing my rear wheel and my soon to be new hub is a Hope Pro 4 but with an XD Driver but my current cassette is a Sram PG-1230 which I know isn't XD driven. Ordered the wrong hub (kids, don't drink and online shop)

My question is: Can I (or should I) remove the XD driver from my new wheel and slot in my cassette/freehub into the new hub?

If not, I do have a GX 11sp cassette which I can cannibalize off of my normal bike but not sure if I want to run the softer alloy GX and have to faff with swapping the derailers, shifters/cabling.

Sure, as long as the old wheel is a hope pro 4, if not, purchase the correct driver and sell the xd.

Dang. It's not.... so guessing I'll be buying another freehub or fitting my other cassette on the new XD driver.

thanks for the knowledge.
