I have Pro 2 EVO rear hubs on my all mountain bike and have had a similar experience. Cracked two alloy freehubs along the key spline and the bearings in the steel freehub exploded after low mileage. On the second steel fh now and if this one blows I'm moving on. I think they increased the axle diamter with the EVO hubs so the bearings are thinner now and in my experience they may not be up to the job.

When I cracked one of my fh the whole unit seized, ripping my dropout and destroyed my rear derailleur. $70 dropout (Intense), $300 SRAM X0 rd, $100 steel freehub....not a cheap mechanical.
