As per the title, what hubs do you use if it is a 135mm non offset spacing? Do you reckon this might work?

It depends on what fork you're going to use.

If you're using an Enabler or Pugsley fork you'll need a ss rear hub as it's 135x10mm. But if you're using a Jones, Vicous Cycles, Fatback fork you'll need a fatbike specific hub that's 135x9mm spaced. Jones, Phil Woods, Fatback will be able to sort you out with this option.

BTW. Hello Dan. ๐Ÿ™‚
