Blurb from EightyOneSpices:

The particular wheelset chosen here, is a very solid and versatile all-rounder ideal for long travel All-Mountain or Gravity Enduro type riding. The front hub is the 40g heavier 20mm thru Markus Klausmann (14x German Dh champion) signature King MK hub (148g), denoted by the "MK" which can be converted to 15mm thru. The rear uses the Kong (208g) which is also adaptable to all current axle standards and runs an oversize 17mm axle for overall stiffness. The three pawls and ratchet are precission manufactured out of titanium for quickest engagement response. As the weight was not a main focus in this wheel build, durable double butted Sapim spokes were chosen in a regular 3-cross 32spoke spoke pattern. The new Flow EX rims with their improved cross section profile are slightly wider and more dint resistent than their predecessor but remain at the same sub 500g weight as before and provide ample support for tyres of up to 2.4" while giving the tyre a good volume.
