Anyone know when this hub will be released? I am itching to the pull the trigger on a TMR01 with 11sp di2 but that will require me swapping out to the new ORC-UL hubs for 11sp since having been spoiled riding the ORC, I don't want to settle for anything less than the best!

When can I get my hands on the ORC-SL???

I chatted with Sarah a few days ago. We got the first pre order on the Shimano 10 speed version of the ORC UL which is scheduled to ship out April 1st. The Shimano 11 speed will be soon to come after that. Campy 11 will be a while it sounds like.

We are supposed to get the first ORC UL and I will definitely post a review on here once I get a chance to ride them.

-@jcumpstay- We just got confirmation that our new ORC 10 speed hub order is on the way!! The 11 speed options are still at least a few weeks out though it sounds like.

Yep, pretty lame that I continue to check back for pics and weights (on the potential delivery) of said hubs to a shop 1200 miles away!
