    Superstar ones have been fine for me

    +1 for superstar. Not the best sealing but lasted 2 years so far with minimal maintenance and lots of mud and hosing down. Decent stainless bearings so just pack between the crown race and bearing with waterproof grease.

    Oh and replacement bearings and crown races are cheap and easily to get hold of.
