The downside of these axles is that every time you remove the hub, according to the manual, you should replace the inner grease seal. That's so that the next time you pump grease in it, the grease doesn't get all over your brakes. Alternatively, you could just never use the E-Z-Lube nipple and regrease by hand.
Mine does have the EZ-lube, and yes they did replace the grease seal, included in the price.
