  • Hi Ben - thanks for that. Running a disc front hub as per the set-ups on the site works well with a 110m spaced frame - you just need to add a 5mm spacer each side of the axle instead of 10mm. The CNC ones look nice and fit well with the seals but washers will do the job. The chainline (without any spacers between cog and hub) will be 41mm. Add a 1mm spacer/washers to make it 42mm.

    However, the wheel will have slight dishing this way. You could put the (2x5) 10mm spacer on the non drive side for a dishless wheel (but with a 46mm chainline) or you can of course use the 120mm set up and just squeeze the frame out 5mm each side - no problem on steel.

    FAQ has quite a bit on this:

    I have a few pre-production cogs (3/32") if anyone wants to try it more cheaply - please email me.

    PS with respect to admin here not sure if it is the done thing to talk about 'my' business here (however tiny and niche!) - will delete all this if needs be?
