Is it possible to convert a DT Swiss boost 110mm hub back to 100mm with a change of endcaps, or are they physically wider bodies?
Google isn't getting me a definitive answer.
Thanks.

No

No, you can't take anything off the disc side so you'd need to remove 10mm off the drive side endcap.

Superstar hubs are the same for boost or non boost, you just need different end caps and a re dish to switch. I don't know if this is the case with dt Swiss but it isn't unheard of.

No, with DT the hub shells are different Boost to non Boost.

Ok, thanks everybody, unfortunately, that’s as I suspected.
