Are you guys sure you have a real HKB? Real HKBs are pretty strong and pretty much the supplier for hubs in Japan. I have my HKB S14 hub for a long time without any issues, and am confident that it's a real HKB.

This is what a real HKB box looks like. Note the p/n tag.



All those imitation tries to mimic the HKB box with the same green color design and style.

and before the Works Bell fan boys get worked up, I have a Gen 1 QR from when Works Bell did not offer steering wheel hubs.
