I have a non boost Nukeproof Neutron wheel with a Boost fork. Currently using two spacers to fill the gap. I keep reading that Nukeproof do different end caps that would work, but all i can find are ones that reduce / increase the axle size.

Do Nukeproof or anyone else do hub end caps that would work or am i stuck with the spacers?

Compatibility chart (first page) suggests not.

How does that work then? Isn't the brake disc in the wrong place relative to the caliper, or is the wheel offset towards the non drive side.

You can either have spacers at each end of the axle and use a spacer to offset the brake disc, or just have a single, larger spacer at the non-disc end of the axle and re-dish the wheel.

2x5mm spacers on the axel and a spacer behind the disc. Loads of kits on ebay.
