upgrade my drivetrain

Good Morning:

I need to overhaul my drivetrain.

I am looking from switching to brifters from my downtube shifters.

I am specifically looking at the Nashbar 9 speed brifters, rear derailleur, 9 speed chain, and shimano 6500 cassette.

Current Hub: Shimano RSX
Current Cassette: Shimano Hyperglide 3 Seven Speed Hub.

Do I have enough clearance? How would I check.

Also, would it be possible to go with a 10 speed?

Bicycle is a commuter that is used every day in all weather.

Thank you very much and I appreciate your response.

Sincerely,
George
