Oh yeah. I guess I forgot that the quickbeam is 120mm. The chris king SS hub is obviously 130mm: http://chrisking.com/hubs/hbs_sspeed Given the fact that several people have successfully re-set the rear end of Simple Ones to utilize 135mm Rohloff hubs though, I think 130mm might not be too drastic of a modification, if someone were really set on the idea. The other option might be to go *smalle*r - to a BMX 110 mm spacing. A quick web search turns up at least one mfgr., Profile, has several single speed cassette hubs. Looks like they even offer a 120mm upgrade too. Not sure what the freehub interface looks like, though: https://www.profileracing.com/estore/product.php?productId=110
