On the website they said this: Available from late November 2014

Maybe this is the reason why review are hard to find.
Seems like a nice ligthweight hubset.
The website missed the hub dimension, maybe they will put these when they will be available.

Now they have only this very light version for road - older was around 200g and fat hub body

They are cheaper than Tune if we look at weight

Old road rear hub X-road has DS flange 18,3mm from center, NDS more than 36mm...maby only for 10speed.
But that is very good geometry
