Can the front hub on these be converted to 100*12mm thru axle front?

DT Swiss tech docs are confusing..says the 240 straight pull road hubs can be converted but doesn't say the MB hubs can. Is there a difference between front road and MB 240 hubs?

12mm?
It says qr or 15mm. Would have thought the adapters would come with the wheels.

Yeah I've got the 15mm adapters. I wondered if they could be converted to 12mm?

i'd expect so. you're best off having a good look around for the adaptors.
FWIW the older qr 240 couldn't be adapted to 15 or 20, but the 20 could be adapted to 15 or qr - smaller ID bearings and axle in the qr version, but just end caps when going the other way [i]i think[/i]. when i was looking at this stuff i found exploded diagrams of the hubs, on the dtswiss website IIRC.
