    X as it has 2 points to keep dirt out

    www.ballards.cc for a good price

    if you plan on riding in the dirt better to Use WD40
    as a lube primarily to keep orings moist and also along the chain
    sliders to help prevent wear on them

    as anything sticky attracts dirt and makes grinding paste

    o <-- see 1 point of seal , eventual oring suffers and lets water and crap
    in
    x <---- see 2 points of seal , when first one starts to go it hits the 2nd
    which still should be nice
    and juicy ;)
