chris king hubs 142x12?

the syntace web page lists king hubs as 142x12 compatible, but I only see 135x12 on the king website. My bike is modular and can take a normal 135 dropout or 142x12. Is 142x12 much stiffer than a 135x10?

The 142.5 spaced hubs are stiffer but I do not know if King is making a hubs for it. I do know that Industry Nine makes a 142.5 spaced hub.
called CK, they said they are working on 142x12 axels and it should be out around the end of the year.
I hope Hadley comes up with something too. They should as they support everything out there!

Isn't the hub the same but the end caps are longer so they interface with slots in the frame ?

Most likely
