Fitting XDR on Shimano Hubs

Anyone done it?

I have an older pair of Dura Ace wheels which I'd like to use with my SRAM AXS equipped bike, but can't seem to find a freehub advertised to do the job!

    It's not going to happen. Shimano won't produce freehub bodies for another company's standard.

    Gap in the market...

    A Shimano hub with a Sram freehub? A gap that won't be filled? 🤔

    Given the size of the two hubs feels like you should be able to 3D Print an attachment which slots over the shimano fitting. Wishful thinking maybe...
