Posted this in the shop forum, but want to see if any south monkeys had any input

I recently came into a set of the 2010 Easton Havoc AM wheels. I see that the front wheel comes with the thru axle conversion; however the back wheel is set up for QR. I see that you can order the 10mm through axle for an additional $60

My question is, I have a Morewood Mbuzi frame and the rear triangle does not have the standard QR dropouts for the rear axle, simply an enclosed circle where I slide the thru axle bolt through the triangle then the hub and tighten and I believe it is a 12mm thru axle. I have heard that the above conversion kit will work and will not work with this setup since my rear doesn't have QR dropout or is there some other way to convert the hub.
