If you use the Surly hub then they chainline is 53.5mm which the same as putting a ring on the outer tab of a standard mountain bike chainset. I've got this set up on a surly cross check and initially I wasnt sure if everything would line up, it might me a couple of mm out but it's not making any funny noises or anything.

This may be going off topic, but I can't find a specific thread other than AQA, but I have a couple of questions.
Nature Boy Disc - 135mm rear spacing.
I have a Hope Trails rear wheel. Loads of scope to adjust chainline with spacers.
I want a fixed rear wheel too. As far as I can see I have the hub options of:
Cheap - Trialtech Sport 135mm Rear Disc
Mid - Surly Ultra New Mountain Fixed Disc
Expensive - Phil Wood Kiss Off/White Industried ENO
Are those the only options, any reason for one over the other?
What the hell do I do about cranks/chain line?
Where would be the best (cheapest) place to get the frame modified for internal brake and dynamo routing, and maybe light fixings?
I thought this would be simple, but I'm totally being thrown by not having 120mm spacing.
