What a Shimano 105 R7000 (11-speed) cassette fits and works with — freehub, gear range and chains — each point sourced. In short: it drops onto any standard Shimano HG 11-speed freehub with no spacer, and the range you can run depends on your rear-derailleur cage.
| Component | Attribute | Value | Src |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freehub body Shimano HG 11-speed (HG-EV) |
Which freehub does it fit? | Any standard Shimano HG 11-speed freehub — no spacer (HG-EV keeps the same body width as 10-speed) | [1] |

| Chain | Compatible chains | Shimano HG-EV 11-speed (CN-HG601/701) or HG-X11 mountain chain | [1] |
| Cross-compatibility | Interchangeable with other Shimano 11-speed road? | Yes — shares the HG 11-speed road standard with Ultegra R8000 and Dura-Ace R9100 cassettes | [2] |
Planning a hillier trip? A GS-cage 105 mech takes an 11-34T for easier climbing gears — worth checking before a Dolomites or Mallorca cycling holiday.
