What am I looking at here?

TUNE-MAG-150-CARBON

Seems like a mag 150 with a carbon axle. Is this an aftermarket mod or something Tune sold/sells?

Here's a pic for when eBay listing expires.

While we are on the topic of Tune lore, whatever happened to the 96g Mag 90? Was that produced or just for show?

How much is it with the freehub?

Extralite makes rear hubs at 128gr with the freehub and the DS flange is straight pull.

You are looking at a Tune rear hub that appears to be missing both the freehub and inner bearings. It should look like this.

Right. Not sure what I was thinking. So this might be a standard mig 150. No carbon axle?

The Enve 66 carbon tubular wheelset I used to own had a Tune Mag 150 rear hub with a carbon axle and red alloy freehub as pictured above and I recall it was sub 200-grams.
