I'm a bit of a bike newbie. I bought an all purpose bike that was set up single speed with 29" tires, disc brakes (6h).

I purchased a SRAM 11spd group set (the one that doesn't require XD driver) to convert the bike out of SS but I'm having a problem swapping out the hub.

The rear dropouts are 135mm apart. I'm finding it difficult to find basic (eg Shimano) 135mm hubs that are 32h, 6hole disc, qr.

The front wheel is a 15x100 TA instead of QR so I can't seem to find a wheelset that mates directly.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Should be easy enough to track down what you looking for...

Is your intent to purchase a complete wheel set, just a rear wheel or re-build the rear wheel on a new hub?

This was just some of the first things that came through on the google...

Thanks. The Dt Swiss is a good example of my problem. The site says that the hub only accepts 8-10spd cassettes.

Ah I see the confusion. Some SRAM 11spd cassettes fit on 10spd drivers.

Naw, those are standard Shimano freehubs which will take 11sp cassettes. That wheelset give you the option you seek.

And Jenson has just a hub if that’s all you need...
