    I've had mine 15 months, loads of mud, loads of washing with FS1, still spinning sweet.

    If you got free replacements you can't grumble too much.

    Bearing life is dependant on how often you ride your bike.

    On my bulbs, I'll get through a set of front hub bearings every 6 months and rear bearings every 12 months.

    Its worth picking the seals off the bearings and checking whether they are filled with grease or not. Cheaper bearings will suffer from this more.
