The SON 150 mm hub, suitable for Jones' Truss has a wider flange than the 135 mm option. No funky spacing needed for the rotor, unless the Truss is even more funky.

Mine's the older 135 spec truss so the SON is a spaced standard body (not sure whether it's F or R disc spacing). It'd work but I'm fussy and I don't like the idea/look of the extended axles, though I'm sure it'd be ok - SON do things well. Plus I tend to ride slower and take more breaks in pubs + cafes when riding that bike so a battery pack is fine.

The hubs's not the problem on the 135 mm version. It's them snappy, bendy, wiggle-loosy M5 QR skewers.

I can leave my original SWB as SS … I now have 1x11 LWB Plus
Spaceframe with Truss fork.
I’ve always loved the original one, so this addition should fill a gaping hole left by the theft of my Scandal 4 years ago … a 29er.
It’s cost 2/5 the price of the Broken Road so there’s even some wriggle room if I need to spend anything on it, like a Thomson seat post or whatever.
And it even came with the Jones branded Revelate fork bags & framebag .

So, thank you all for the advice
