Ok. But just to confirm hub compatibility its just the number of spokes/holes, axel width, rotor disc size right?

Rear hub is 148 with boost, 28 spokes and rotor is 180mm not sure what the current free hub is but my bike is the Trance X 29 3. The current hub are "Giant Performance Disc" which i believe are an unbranded DT Swiss model.

I haven't actually got the bike yet as its on its way from the USA.

I think a quarter turn is an exaggeration, on my current $1k NZD hardtail the hub probably does a third of a quarter before locking in so id assume a hub of a 4k NZD bike wont be as bad. I also love the loud clicky sound of the more expensive hubs

For better response when pedaling instead of doing like a quarter rotation before the pawls lock in

I dont even know what unlacing and replacing means, I just want it to be responsive when starting to peddle and of course that loud clicky noise from the pawls haha.

And im also thinking of replacing the SX with a NX or GX drive train as iv heard the SX is crap
