Yeah you might be right regardless of end caps disc will be to close to frameI'd say no, judging by the below image. Unless it's a DH hub the flanges are too wide.

Yep, the whole point of all levels of boostage is to increase the flange spacing in order to improve wheel stiffness. Triangulation & all that funky shit.Definitely not. The cassette and brake disc need the spacing, not as simple as knocking 4.5mm off each side or 9mm off one.
The extra 9mm on SB is all flange spacing.
I did, couldn't see the tech specs must be blindJump on the DT Swiss webbysite, find the hub and it should have all the tech specs.
Yeah from what I have found you can convert boost to Sb that's why I'm trying to find tech specs to check which model the hub is as it has no serial number, it only says dt 350 on the hubLooking at the pics of how everything is aligned you could probably convert a boost hub to super boost by spacing the rotor appropriately and adding a spacer to make the hub width 157... But doing the reverse, as you want to do, would not be possible.
Boost to Superboost uses a longer endcap and a brake rotor spacer to make it work. Can't go Superboost to Boost because the extra width is in between the spoke flanges. Try and take 9mm of the rotor and there'll be no brake mount anymore...Yeah from what I have found you can convert boost to Sb that's why I'm trying to find tech specs to check which model the hub is as it has no serial number, it only says dt 350 on the hub
Yes i understand this but how do i know its boost hub that's been converted to Sb, the hub dosent say Sb or boost on itBoost to Superboost uses a longer endcap and a brake rotor spacer to make it work.

Assuming it's 6-bolt rotor flange:Yes i understand this but how do i know its boost hub that's been converted to Sb, the hub dosent say Sb or boost on it
It's centre lock, is there even a super boost adapter available for centre lock?Assuming it's 6-bolt rotor flange:
Is the overall width across the endcaps 157mm and the rotor flange 18.8mm from the brake-side end cap? If so it's superboost...
