Had the rear loosen up a few times. Took it apart, cleaned it up really well with alcohol and blue lock-tighted the lock nuts on. You can't over tighten them because the axle bottoms out inside the freehub body. Did this about 3 weeks ago and have ridden about 10 times, haven't had any problems since. Also, keep you thru axle clean and greased.

I have just had to replace the 2 sealed cartridge bearings on my 2011. Was fairly easy and cheap.

I had mine 'rebuilt' by the shop i bought it from. Seems fine ever since and have ridden in some s.h!t conditions.

I think I'm going to have to change the free hub bearings in mine, started getting play in the cassette and its not the lock ring..... Also I'm sure I can't get it to go as quickly as I used to Madder

Just had my rear wheel rebuilt by my LBS. I started taking the hub apart and found metal inside the hub guess one of the nuts had stripped.

I had issues with the Wheelset that came on my 2013 Stumpjumper Comp Evo. There was play in both hubs. Specialized support recommended putting green locktite in and around the end caps of both hubs, which lessened the issue but it wasn't a fix by any means. Specialized ended up giving me a store credit for the value of the wheelset. Never had any issues with the Roval hubs on the aftermarket wheels though, those have been extremely solid.
