This might seem like a bit of ridiculous idea but I'm after a single-speed hub that is 142x12 compatible.
I have a NOS all aluminum 8-speed cassette that I've pulled apart and had new spacers made to make that of a 10-speed spacing. I also pulled out 3 cogs to give me a total of 5 gears, ranging from 12-23t with 10-speed spacing so I can take advantage of my Saint Shadow Plus rear derailleur. The "new" cassette takes up 18mm total so it's fit most single speed hubs and give me a wider flange spacing. The goal: A super compact, quiet drivetrain with the ability to have a gear for most any occasions.
The setup is going to go on my 2013 Diamondback Mission 4x.
I know Hadley is listing a 142x12 SS hub but it doesn't seem to be available.
The 2010+ 240 SS hubs just require new caps to be converted.
Unfortunately, I want to be cheap this year and don't feel like spending that much on a rear hub.
Are there any other SS rear hubs that can be converted to 142x12?
