@Scilly.Suffolk I've had bearings like that. I don't think it's marked which side has the additional seal, but it would probably be helpful if the additional seal was on the exposed side...

If you fancy overthinking it as I did, I popped the bearing out that was the 'wrong' way round, reversed it, then popped it back in.

So both bearings have the extra seal, but have been fitted in different directions?

FFS between Felt and Lifecycle UK, it's a wonder that this bike hasn't just given up and dropped down dead.

Possibly, but there's no way to tell I think, as both sides of the bearing are visually identical unless you take the seals off...

I wouldn't worry about it myself.
