Extralite hubs weigh in at 182g for pair. They are apparently fairly reliable too in terms of bearing life. Those enve hubs look a bit to pricey. For that money (actually less as I got them trade) I had cliff at Royce make me some titanium flanged hubs with a carbon shell. The rear hub is for 2:1 lacing and has a flange seperation of 63 mm. Surely if you are going to spend that much on hubs you want them to look like jewelry, last a lifetime and be well unique.
The wheels that I built them into are simply lovely.
