"Spin" rear wheel conversion

I'm going to use the Surly FIXXER on an old Spin wheel. It's a 3 spoke, and I think it's actually ceramic, not carbon. something like that.

According to surly, it won't work with pre 1997 dura ace, and I'm reasonably certain this wheel predates . anyone know what hub assemblies SPIN used?
