ISO (6 Bolt) Cog Chainline

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if the chainline for 6 bolt cogs is standard? I'd just measure mine, but alas, I don't have the hub in front of me yet.

Basically, I'm wanting to run a threaded 16 tooth cog on the drive side, and a back up cog on the 6 bolt side. If I flip the wheel, the chainline will need to be 52mm.

A lot of what I'm reading on Mtbr says that it 'may not' be a standard dimension, yet most people seem to be getting 52-53mm which will work.

Thanks!

I got my hub today anyways, and it's somewhere around 52-53.

By standard I mean that I'd assume most hubs would have the same dimension from the inside of the dropout to the rotor mounting surface. Your measurement of 53mm and what I measured on my hub seems to confirm that.
