Default Specialized S works Rear Hub NEW - Noise

I just got a new Specialized S works hub put on the rear. It sounded fine, but now it makes a loud clicking noise when freewheeling and a little clicking noise under pressure. Does anyone have any experience or know if this is correct. I was told it was a racing hub, if this is true I don't know how those guys can handle that noise.

Have the dealer look at it. Many of the mass produced type hubs like that tend to fail rather fast. Not usually the best quality.

Thanks, Took the bike back in today and had it looked at. The hub sounds like a ratcheting sound. Compared to the other S-works bikes at the shop and most of the Trek bikes with higher end hubs they all sound the same. I'm just not used to a higher quality hub.
