Joytech is 3 pawls with a single circlip like spring going around the driver, over the pawls which gives the springiness to the pawls. I know thats vague but Ody, demolition and a bunch of others used it especially on complete bikes. The width differed between a few models so it might not be a one hunna percent accurate fit.

chosen use/have used the same 3 pawl circlip spring system in their drivers too, though the dimensions were different to joytech so the parts arent interchangeable

they do custom bored ones to 15/16 (cos theyre normally 22mm), so email them and ask if they can do 24

15/16 and 24mm are the same thing (in the BMX crank world)

Chosen and Joytech are different sizes, that's the major difference. I'll get some photos.

Finally got some pics. Ody/Joytech (grey) and Shadow/Chosen (black). They are really similar in size but the Odyssey is a little taller and has bigger bearings and pawls.
Both fit an Odyssey hub (didn't try the Odyssey driver in a Chosen type hub). Both fit the axle fine (same ID on bearings) but the Shadow pawls are still exposed when in the hub as far as it will.
