Can I put a Shimano 11sp cassette onto a 11 spd MTB hub?
Specifically this rear wheel

And a run of the mill 5800/6800 11spd cassette

Yes, Mavic freehubs are 11 speed (road) compatible and have been since before 11 speed shimano was introduced..

I have a set of mavic 29er MTB wheels that I run an cs5800 11 speed cassette on with no problems.

Hmm. I found a spare 6800 cassette and it doesn't fit. Splines are fine but freehub body is too short so the 11th cog doesn't fit.

Edit
ahh, found a pic from Shimano. This seems to sum it up
