Fitting 11sp cassette on Dura ace 7800 hubs!
Hi! I got a pair of Shimano dura ace wheels with 7800 hubs, unfortunately i discovered that these weren't compatible with the 11 speed dura ace on my new bike. (The wheels came with a used TT bike i bought recently). My question is, is it possible to change the cassette body to one that fits 11sp? and which one?
Thank you for your answers!

No after market shimano freehub bodies for 11 speed as of last time I asked shimano! New hub time. The ultegras are cheap.

Also, the 7800 hubs were a completely different design from those before and after and use a unique freehub body. So, no, you need a complete new hub (or wheel).
