What is the latest with EKAR compatible Cranks/chainrings? Did White Industries ever do anything?

What about a rear boost hub that can take an N3W free hub? I would be doing a custom steel front and using a SON SL hub so that could be boost as well.

Could I use EKAR crank with Boost rear? I may want to go with different crank anyways for lower gearing - but just curious if it might work.

Thanks

Current EKAR Rando Bike below - BiLam, SON SL, Berhtoud sans decaluer front bag.

Coming back to this.

I'm trying to go lower in the front than 38.

I have an FSA SL-K 46-30 Crank sitting in the garage. It takes DM rings.

Does anyone know if I can swap in this ring that is Shimano 12S compatible and it might be good to go?

Any idea of what this would do to the Driveline?

I'm not familiar with DM rings - are they pretty swappable?

Thanks
