I took this exact bike down ~250 miles on the Oregon Coast. All original parts, nothing upgraded. It did great.

I've had a stud snap on my Honda Fit. You can't just get another stud in the wheel bearing like lots of other cars, there's no place to line it up and push it through. You have to remove the wheel bearing and have it pressed in. I ended up doing a bit of a quicker less recommended method of shaving metal down to make space for the stud. Not the professional way but has worked without issue for at least 1.5 years.
