    I presume HG11 means 11 speed Shimano. You can fit a 10 speed cassette to this freehub with an extra 1.75mm spacer in addition to any spacers with the cassette, which may or may not be included.

    HG stands for HYPER GLIDE. This suggests to me that it glides too much. On the other hand, you certainly don't want hypo-glide, which would glide too little. Maybe get something with ISO-GLIDE which I believe would glide the correct amount.

    I noticed that the description states that "the reactivity is up by 4%.". Does this mean the aluminium oxidises 4% faster?

    Really don't understand these posts by smart a***es trying to be funny. Maybe you should use your comedic genius in the cake stop section instead of in here where folk are actually looking for help.

    The OP's question has already been answered. Lighten up, you are going to die one day - why spend your life being miserable?

    This is how threads get out of hand and this is already escalating. Does it have to escalate further?

    Well I thought it was funny. And I won't be buying any wheels based on a claimed increase of 4% in reactivity. I'm looking for at least a 7% increase. Whatever it means. And in comparison to what?? Maybe it loses something in translation...
