Mine failed after a couple of weeks; the wheel actually locked up solid and wouldn't turn forwards or backwards, which was a tad dangerous in heavy traffic. I had to carry the bike home.
Apparently the fault was a common one; the cure was to insert an additional spacer somewhere in the innards. I don't know if this known fault has been cured, but since I'm not interested in paying to do SA's product development for them, I got rid of the replacement hub.
Shame, because it was a great product when it worked.
