Roval Fusee SL25 - 11 Speed Conversion
I have a set of Roval Fusee SL 25 wheels, currently with a 9 speed hub body. I think they look good and I'd like to convert them to 11 speed, but I'm getting a lot of confusing/differing information. So I have some questions....
- Regardless of specific freehub compatibility, let's say I am able to put an 11 speed freehub body on there, will that body be wider than the existing 9 speed freehub? If so, will the wheel need to be re-dished to accommodate the extra width?
- I keep seeing that these wheels have a DT Swiss hub, and if so I should be able to find a freehub body for them. I've referenced a couple of threads below that state this, but that's certainly not much to go on.

Or you can just use a Shimano/SRAM 11-34T or higher 11 speed cassette which will fit perfectly on 9/10 speed shimano/sram freehubs

Is that true for mountain and road cassettes? I've read that you can swap a mountain 11 speed cassette on a 9/10 speed road freehub body, but I didn't think that was true for road. Also, what allows the 11-34T or higher cassette to fit?
