So my bearings are sounding like mice after this mornings wet ride, so I'm going to replace them. The originals are 609 2RSH. Anyone know the significance of the H on the end? Can I use any 609-2RS bearing?
Thanks for any help.

    afaik...

    2rs - rubber seal both sides
    2rsh - ditto, except for some makes i think the seal may be metal reinforced

    for bike wheels treat them as interchangeable
    my bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny
