XT 11 speed cassette on Syncros wheels

Hi everyone,

 

I'm thinking about going the new Shimano XT 11 speed route on my 2015 Scott Spark 910.

My questions are, would I need to change my rear hub in order to fit a 11 speed cassette? Also, will the chain line be ok seeing as the bike came out with 10 speed?

 

Thanks a lot

no, yes. 

 

MTB 11 speed cassette fits on the same size hub as the 8/9/10 speed. All the same width. Chainline will be fine. 

 

Only reason a roadie 11sp cassette needs a new freehub body is cos the cogs are too small to be sufficiently dished to fit them all on the same width freehub.
