Below is a picture of an Ekar bearing and you can see the special seal it has on it that interfaces with the Ekar specific bottom bracket. Disclaimer - I live in California and don’t see a lot of mud so I’m not concerned about needing special seals. Although I’ve run normal Campy bearings for years in the wet and they do very well as long you service them.
Awesome info, I'll keep that in mind as an emergency option!
