Just ordered a set of these as they seemed to be an absolute bargain but after ordering realised it says 10 speed and i need 9 speed. Can it be converted or will it be ok or am i selling them on!?

nothing to convert, it's up to you what cassette you put on. If it were 11, then it's a different kettle of fish.

As above, you'll be right. 9 and 10 speed fit on the same size free hub.

Could do that but get 21mm tape...they're the original Flow rims, not EX so internally are 22.6mm

Does anyone know if these hubs are convertable?
I fancy trying these but my front is 15mm.

That's not what stans recommend. I have 3 original flows all taped with 25mm. By the time you've gone in and out of the spoke bed the fit is spot on. I doubt 21mm tape would cover the small holes in the bead bench.

Sun Ringle convertor & a normal QR will do it.

I've one knocking about but they're only £15 on CRC IIRC.
