Hi

Longshot but after a freehub for 11 speed Shimano, MTB wheelset with DT 240 hubs. Needs to be the twin spring ratchet freehub (and not the one stamped 'shimano road'. I think 10 speed road might also work though.

Maybe someone has upgraded to microspline or XD?

Cheers

freehub will be the same, you will need different end caps to make it work. Depends on axle lenght, type and if disc or not.

Do your research and let me know as I have 11s road freehub for dual ratchet. I got one for ratchet EXP, too.

It's for a boost mtb rear wheel (148), disc. But my understanding is that the mtb freehub is the same length as road 10spd and road 11spd doesn't work (could be wrong).

I may well have one, I'll have a look in the spare parts draw.

freehub will be the same for 11 speed Hyper Glide, adding one cassette spacer will allow you to run 10 speed cassette.

Drive side end caps for boost are different for HG, XDR, XD or microspline

SJS cycles seemed to have a good supply of dt240 end caps for most scenarios when I bought recently - admittedly I was looking at road only.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
