Did the seals on my 550. Ordered the parts from ebay and they shipped from the UK.
Parts arrived in about a week.
Parts included two seals, a small tube of grease and two dust boots.
Seals looked identical to the original and fit perfectly.
Dust boots were too small and did not fit right. I would recommend against using them.
Total cost was about 19.49 Pounds shipped ($30.94) which is about $14 cheaper than Bikebandit OEM for just the seals.
I also ordered front wheel bearings from the USA website at the same time but these haven't arrived after two weeks. Not sure what's going on there.
Update: bearings arrived. Took about 2 weeks probably because they shipped from NZ. Bearings came in sealed bags marked "Koyo" and included a small tube of bearing grease. I also sent e-mail about the dust boots and they responded asking for more info. I think I'll take a couple of pics and send them.
