Nope, or at least not as far as I can tell from google. I doubt there will ever be one as there is nay demand for it (at the moment anyway) and your average SS'er is always after much cheapness.....

so, i could take the cassette apart, and use the desired sprocket with a ss spacing kit ?

No reason why not Tony but expect it to eat into the body.

to be honest Stu, it is gonna probably go in the bin.

the wheel is a OEM one that trek put on their bikes. it is there own 141 boost, that nobody has heared of.
the wheel was craply built from the off. shop rebuilt it after a month. i had wheels rebuilt a month ago.
on removing the cassette, the lock ring stripped some alloy from the free hub out. it will now only tighten handtight. the cassette feels loose and rattly on the carrier.
the xt 12 speed rear mech also sticks when dropping down the cassette, it moves with a crafty heel kick.

the man who invented 1 x wants fecking shooting with custard pies, forever.

oh, and the microspline freehub thing is a bit unique. the hub wont take a hg on so i cant swap it for a 9/10/11 speed one.

so i am screwed. so i will try ss and see what happens.

Marin and Sonder both use(d) the Boost 141 standard too. Likely there are others out there. Pretty sure Hope will have an option, likely Superstar will have too.

Can you change the freehub for a normal Shimano one?
