Shimano 11 speed compatibility

Brian B

I am putting together a new steed this year and will have dura-ace 11 speed as part of the build. Can anybody confirm that it will be okay to fit to 2013 Mavic wheels free hub - Mavic M11 Kysriums SLR.

I have seen some conflicting reports regarding other hubs but generally Mavic is deemed to be okay.

Any help appreciated.

PS posted on workshop but have had no replies.

I've read that Mavic wheels have supported 11 speed for quite sometime, but I've just had a search of the Mavic website and I can't find anything to back this up.

Just at a guess i would say they would be fine, given that you need the spacers on 10 speed shimano cassettes.

Thanks for the replies and it backs up what I had researched myself as per link below

DA 9000 fits mavic 2013 wheels. Just remove the 1.8mm spacer.

anyone know about chris king hubs? read they're doing an 11 speed version, which suggests not compatible. makes going to 11 speed insanely expensive if have to get new wheels too!

It will be an expensive conversion, yes... there is also no gain whatsoever in going 11 speed, so best to wait until everything is ready for the bin before "upgrading"

The 10 speed shimano Chris King hubs will not work with shimano 11 speed as is and it looks like it would involve significant costs to get them to work - see link below. Wheelsmith were indicating the 11 speed Chris King hubs would be available in the UK from February.

Thanks for all replies.

Glasgowbhoy - The storck is still going strong but soemtimes I like to disappear into the wild and do runs up to 170miles and the storck is bit rigid and uncomfortable at that distance. Going for a van nic astreus to get the best of boths worlds as it meant to be fast, responsive and comfortable.
