Hoping there’s a wheel builder out there who can answer this.
My wife’s Giant Stance has Boost QR 5x141 rear dropout spacing and the wheelset I just purchased has a boost DT350 with Microspline freehub. Before I buy I just want to be sure that there aren’t some “special” QR end caps specifically on the drive side to convert 12x148 hubs to Boost QR 5x141.
I found a thread on MTBR that references an email to DT Swiss and the Rep confirmed that 5X135 end caps will convert a Boost hub to Boost QR. There two part numbers one for “Shimano MTB”: HWGXXX0001528S and one for Sram XD: HWGXXX00S3115S.
No mention of Microspline is what’s got me confounded.
