Thats a Tune, very nice. Not sure why they went for the Disc brake version though.

If someone could explain to me why the non-drive side flange is so big, I'd grateful. A dishless wheel could just as easily be obtained by using the same size as the drive-side, and moving it out a few mm. All I can think of is that the construction, means the hub uses more of the same parts the standard rear uses, and therefore reduces cost of production.
Tune? really?
