Help 10 speed hub to 11 speed hub

Hello all

Need some help. I have a set of easton ea90 sl wheel. I have recently upgraded to 105 11 speed groupset and now wish to convert my eastons to 11 speed (they have a 10 speed hub). Do I simply replace the 10 speed hub body for an 11 speed one.

Pete

It'd be worth taking the cassette off and if there's a 1-2mm spacer, ditch that and try your cassette..

On the road side, Shimano and SRAM 9/10-speed hubs are generally shorter than 11-speed ones and won't take an 11-speed road cassette, the most noticeable exception being Mavic which have had longer freehubs for donkeys years due to compatibility with their own gear - seems like 11-speed compatible hubs are getting more common however. The table at the bottom on this article may help

Easton do an 11-speed compatible freehub AFAICS, and you can fit an 11-speed Shimano/SRAM compatible cassette from EDCO which fits on a 10-speed road freehub (with their own lock-ring), but they're pricey.

10/11 speed hubs are generally the same. You use a spacer on the inside with a 10 speed cassette.
