Shimano hubs [Solved]

Hi, bike riders!

Can anyone recognize these Shimano hubs as seen on Schwinn Tune bicycle in NYC? Kudos to whoever gets this right! I'll post the answer by the end of the week.

Haha. I recognize this one - they are from Trek Lime Wink

It was not a very successful bicycle project; wasn't the cheapest option too. It had dynamo on the front hub and hub gears on the back with automatic shifting, based on your speed if I remember correctly. Lime was marketed towards less experienced cyclists and those who are not capable of biking much.
