Is the Quest available as a frame kit?

Just wondering, as I'm starting to think about a new recumbent, but already have a lot of components sitting around.

Curious also if the front dropouts can support the anti twist washers for a Shimano Nexus or Alfine IGH hub?

The Q is only available as a complete (75% assembled) bike as that is how they are packaged. The front dropouts can support the washers for those hubs. I used an 8 speed Nexus on mine for a season. If I remember correctly I had to source a few of the aftermarket versions of the washers as they are not all at the same angles.
