Rear triangle is aluminium so I definately would not recommend bending it.

If you go for it the rims from Chain Reaction are 451 not 406. The Rhino is designed for 406. The 451 rims might make tire choice much more limited.

Something else to consider with your rear hub would be chainline. Most 3 ring MTB chainsets have a chainline of 50mm on the middle ring. If your hub is narrower than standard the chainline could be well off. You would have to have spacers for the rear cog.

Not sure how a front suspension fork will behave if its being "bent" to accept a hub of slightly different dimensions. The area of weakness will probably be the bridge/brace above the wheel.

As for pics - once JE James Cycles deliver my spokes I'll post some of the bike but at this rate you're bike will be finished first!
