Ohian has them I'm pretty certain, maybe he'll see this and give you some input. I never rode them so I can't say, but spec-wise they seem dialed. Only think I don't like is it uses a single spring wraparound design driver but that doesn't automatically make it shit though.

It's great besides the bushing. Driver spins slow and rough, especially when it's new. But otherwise it's smooth and rolls forever and looks awesome.

All my friends that run them have super smooth spinning drivers. I mean one of them can double crank flip no problem.
Ive heard of the axle bolts being shit gor grinding since theyre aluminum. Otherwise its a very nice hub. Not a fan of the C-clip but im not aware of it being a problem in the Tree hubs.

I have them, highly recommend them. Have all of my hubguards arriving in a few days as well, Axle bolts are not aluminum however, you can choose that option buying them separately to lower the weight. The aluminum bolts are also 14mm thick, I have them in the back with pegs and have no problem. original;bolts are chromoly . Rode mine for a year and still have yet to have one spoke come loose, wheel is still straight as well. I have the V3 cassette. Only thing I didnt like was the older hubguards, with the new guards Ill be giving my profiles a winter vacation. Ive had zero problems with my hub and I know it'll continue to do so. Sam is also awesome should you ever have a problem they are there to help. GET IT!

Does anyone know where I can find a how-to video on how to install these? Am I suppose to be taking off any parts from the actual hub when installing these? I cant seem to figure this out and been wanting to properly install this for months!

If it's for a Tree hub, you need a set of inserts for them to fit correctly. You take the existing collar off and replace it with the guard with the insert. They should be available from Tree.
