Have anyone tried the Carbon-ti X-hub (straightpull) before?
How're they comparing to Tune king/kong?

How does the freewheel sound? (I tend to like quiet hub.)

I'm thinking of a Carbon-ti X-hub (straightpull) + DT XR331 27.5 + Sapim cx ray.
What weight should I be expecting and do you think it's a good built?

A good viscous chain lube can quiet any freehub.

Have a j-bend wheelset on order at the moment, with same components.

The hub sound is on Youtube. It's not quiet.
Curve Grovel ti.
