i was just reading up on it... they also have the rear hub pushed more to the DS, to give better bracing angle on the spokes. means you cant just slap any old wheels on it, need to be dished to suit that frame. and it's 135 QR rear! which sucks, as i'd want to mix and match the roval fatties and carbon wheels off my Enduro on it.
make it 142x12 and standard rear end as far as hub position goes and i'd order one.
Yeah it's a good idea, you'll be able to dish most wheels 5mm so it shouldn't be a massive issue, I also have pretty large hoofs so the 5mm offset was a bit of a worry as I clip my current POS.
I hate the 142mm standard, the flanges are a similar size and the bolt will pull just as much tension as a 12mm so why would you want a wider frame just to make installing a wheel easier? Asymmetric 135mm back end seems like a good idea to me but I am old and run shit 'til it breaks.
I have drawn up my revised next steed, goin' a proper 1.5" HT so it can run a Works 1Deg headset, 63deg for fun rides, 65deg for boring ones.
When I do my tax I'll get the build going.
