I've asked about this before, the watt savings from losing the shields is pretty miniscule. I'd stick with 2RS, cos at some point you will ride it in the wet, you will forget to flush the bearings and it will be seized the next time you ride.
Reminisce? You're getting nostalgic about bearing seals?
