Looking for a front hub with the following spec.
20mm Boost
Straight pull or hook flange but not j-bend
Ideally 6 bolt rather than CL.
28 hole rather than 32.
Any thoughts?

No, but you can convert CL to 6 bolt so ignoring that might make things easier.
Can you use an older 20mm hub with a spacer on the disk mount? Plenty of those around.
KOM Xeno.
Only sticking point is that it uses a proprietary disc rotor (included), but I’ve had no problems with mine.
Hope pro 5 straight pull ......
Straight pull spoke ✔️
28 hole ✔️
20mm axle ✔️
Boost ✔️
6bolt✔️

@ernie I can't see a 20mm option for Newman
@monkeyboyjc looks like Hope straight pull is 24 hole only and CL only. Bring CL uses smaller bearings and makes 20mm impossible.
@tomhoward I can't see 20mm listed but imagine it's the sort of small company you contact directly.

I thought you could covert a 6 bolt to CL but not the other way around?
Pretty sure Newmen don't do a 20mm...
20mm Boost
Just to be clear, you really do mean boost and not 20*110mm don't you?
(I ask as much as anything because I've not actually seen a 20*110 boost fork, though I've not looked hard, and the only time I've heard of them is "big" forks which seems an odd thing to run then specifically want 28h straight pull)
Just to be clear, you really do mean boost and not 20*110mm don’t you?
Yes, it's a modern fork so 20mm Boost rather than the old skool 20mm which as you say, was 20x110. Not at all confusing.
@tomhoward I can’t see 20mm listed but imagine it’s the sort of small company you contact directly.
Correct, I’m running 20mm on mine.
I thought you could covert a 6 bolt to CL but not the other way around?
You thought wrong. It’s only possible to run 6 bolt discs on a CL hub with an adapter.
