Your comment looks fairly testicle free. This has come up twice in a couple of weeks, I'm thinking about designing an inverse shim to bring a bolt on sprocket in to a road crank compatible chainline as so many people with road disc bikes are looking for it.

What is happening here?

Not sure if serious...
Inner 3D brain thinks that could even be possible for toothcounts of 19+, but the machining costs would be ridiculous... -
I did a couple of years ago. Have a cad file somewhere. Figured it wasn't worth it though.
I wanted to use a disc brake when in SS mode so the brake mount would need to be repositioned too. Too many parts and possible faults over getting a chainset with the correct chainline.

Chainline again.
The outer ring of a road double crankset is usually at about... ~46mm
IIRC a bolt on cog on a rear disc hub creates a chainline of about ~53mm
That is a little much variation. You'd be better off with a MTB specific crankset, but then again, that's probably not what you want?
