Fitting parts on to new frame

Hello.
I have a 2016 Nomad at the moment running XT 1 x 11 kit, 160 Pikes, KS dropper etc. Great bike but I would like to go back down to a 2017 Bronson CC and looking at getting the new frame soon. My question is will the parts from the Nomad fit on the Bronson? The parts are virtually as new and it would save me a few ££ transferring them across.
From what I can see the wheels, groupset, brakes etc should all fit straight on? Only thing which maybe a problem is the seat post but I can look in to that.
Thanks in advance

The 2017 Bronson rear end is now Boost so your rear hub will be too narrow from the Nomad - 142mm vs 148mm. Depending on the hub you may be able to convert it to Boost width if the manufacturer offers a kit.
Seat post shouldn't be an issue. You may want to check the head tube lengths of the two bikes if your fork steerer is cut fairly short.Bird Aeris : Trek Remedy 9.9 29er : Trek Procaliber 9.8 SL0
