[#5184567]

If I were to buy a frame with a zero stack tapered head tube, BB30 bottom bracket and 142mm bolt through rear axle, but I only had an 1 1/8" steerer fork, a Hollowtech II crank set and a 135mm Hope Pro 2 Evo rear hub could I get the necessary adapters to make these components fit and are there any suggestions as to the best choices.

Thanks as always for any constructive comments.

Probably, yes, yes (IMHO).

The straight steerer forks are no problem. A hope mix and match headset would deal with that.

Afraid I can't comment on the rest unfortunately as I've no experience with them.

you could certainly bodge something for the rear so I assume someone does a nice shinny kit that does that

Yes, yes and yes.

The ht11 cranks in a bb30 bottom bracket need an adaptor such as the wheels manufacturing one

On a slightly more helpful note, its the X12 kit you need for the Hope hub, if it doesn't say X12 you'll be sending it back and reordering.
