I think you'll find that remanufacturing the hub is a lot bigger a task then getting a proper single speed crankset/BB is. The proper front set up will allow a closer to the stay ring and the resulting shift to the center of the bike of the rear cog placement. Additionally a spacer or two behind the rear cog will further offer up a couple more MMs of hubshell movement to the NDS.
BYW you say the hub is a standard road one? It looks like you're running a threaded cog and not a single cog freewheel. Is this so? If so I hope you run wheel brakes on this bike. Andy
