I have just bought a 105 11sp groupset and have a problem fitting the cassette on my fulcrum racing one hub. I bought the wheels in approx 2008 so I fear the hubs are not long enough to take a 11sp cassette. Is this true and is there anything I can do - fit a longer hub? I know the wheels are 'old' but they run great and are a decent pair of wheels. Any advice appreciated.

    Campag introduced 11 speed in 2008 but Shimano didn't until 2012 so the (Shimano) freehub on your wheel won't accept an 11 speed Shimano cassette.

    You may be able to fit a Campag 11speed freehub to the wheel and then use an 11 speed Campag cassette on it - which will work fine with your 11spd Shimano groupset.
    FFS! Harden up and grow a pair :D
