135-12mm axle rear wheel?

This probably silly question as i have no clue flatout on this… So i have a 135-12mm rear wheelset … Would this fit to a frame that have dropout specs 12 x 142mm? ..or do i need to mod something?

It’s a little different. Wee bit wider and the frame has slots to retain the wheel making it easier to fit. Lots of hubs offer conversion kits though.

(just for once it’s a genuinely better standard, not just some bike industry SHIT)

No idea I’m afraid- it comes in a 142 but I don’t see a conversion kit

What frame?

My 2013 Scott Genius frameset shipped with 142×12, 135×12 and 135×5 drop outs.

I’d drop Nukeproof a line though, there’s very little chance that there is any difference between their 142 and their 135 aside from the end caps.

their site states :Comprehensive list of spare parts available aftermarket.
Worth a call i reckon.
