I'm getting ready to order a GN1 crank and they want to know if I want the knurled or plain version for the rear main area. Should I have a preference or does anyone have any input on this?

The lip seal is the rubber/neoprene seal thats available from most gasket mfg'sNice post thanks! Is the lip seal an easily sourced part number? I haven't looked up seals yet but am in the process of building a 4.1

Awesome thanks. I didn't know if the generic gasket kits still used the rope seals or if they came with this lip seal. Thanks!The lip seal is the rubber/neoprene seal thats available from most gasket mfg's

Yep I can see thatI've seen OEM cranks with SLIGHT cuts in it last with a rubber seal. If these cuts are actual canyons, then breaking the leading edge with some emery cloth might not be a bad idea.
Has anyone ever seen a knurled crank actually cause damage to a lip seal? Like repetitively? So far I have not encountered it but I do wonder about it.
