Can someone recommend some of the above please?
It's an 11sp mech so I think they need to be 12t. The ones on the mech are very sloppy and need replacing! Plus the bearings or bushings on the originals seem to be poop.

This is a fairly common subject, quite a few recent threads about it. Other than suggesting do a search I've no recommendations as I've stuck with Shimano.

Search for the SRAM NX jockey wheels, same number of teeth, same narrow wide pattern, but bushings instead of bearings so won't seize as quickly, and a quarter of the price.
Oh for the days of wearing jockey wheels down to throwing stars!

Been running a set off these since the SRAM ones in one of our mechs packed it. Not had problem since
This code may still work JANSALE25

Sram NX or some kind of alloy ones off ebayseemed to be the consensus on the other thread about this.
Or you could put new bearings in your existing jockeys if the teeth are ok. I forget the size but it's written on the bearing seals and they're cheap to buy.
For now I pulled the seals off the bearings and cleaned them out hen rammed them full of grease and they're going ok to far. Might order up spare bearings shortly for when they seize up again.

My original SRAM ones lasted 5mins on my CX bike, i brought the pricey Hope ones and they're doing fine in the grime.

has got me through this season. My CX bike has a non-clutch Rival 11spd mech which cost less than replacement jockey wheels (but does seem very prone to clogging so I might end up trying a newer clutch mech at some point).

2 CX races and a few rides and mine are already on their way. Although, I used to find that they'd seize, but then spin well when free again, will see if these do the same (and have some backups ready just in case)
EDIT: looks like NX and Apex share the same jockey wheels, so that would explain why mine (Apex) are coming back to life. Old X9 used to behave in a similar manner with bearings though...

What is it about CX that's so hard on hockey wheels compared to mountain biking? I've literally got no experience of CX and just curious really.....

Mud like you just don’t get on the MTB, as you wouldn’t keep ploughing on as hard as possible. But also grass, which the mud can then really get a grip of

Grass - can imagine that's a nightmare wrapped round everything. I think I'm happy to avoid CX!

You wouldn't beleive how long it takes to get a CX bike properly clean again
Hope I'm never good enough to need 2 of them!
