I have a set of Eastons with the R4s. They have an adjustment for bearing play that can be done with the wheels mounted in the bike. Before I bought them, I read a couple of complaints where that adjustment didn't stay as set. Mine have never had that problem. They've been just fine but if you search the 'net you'll see there are some people who will complain about Easton hubs.

I'll second that. I've never had to touch the hub free-play on either one of the wheels that I own.
