I saw a thread here on the forum that had a side by side comparison of bearings. I think they were HD, All ***** and Drag Spl. and they all looked identical.

Have you pulled the seal off a bearing to see what kind of grease is in there?

No, and I don't think I'm going to mess with them.

One reason I went with DS is they sold a kit for the rear wheel that had one ABS bearing and three standard bearings in it.

I popped the seals off mine and replaced the clear crap with some high tech grease I have.
