A seal for use between a first and second telescopically configured bicycle member, comprises a substantially cylindrical body having a first ring portion and a second ring portion. The first ring portion has a diameter that is different than a diameter of the second ring portion. The top ring portion is coupled to a first telescopic member and the bottom ring portion is coupled to a second telescopic member. The body has an opening defined therethrough from a top surface of the first ring portion to a bottom surface of the second ring portion. The opening receives the first telescopic member therethrough. An injector port is coupled to the body and has a first port opening and a second port opening. A port channel is in communication with the first and second port openings. The second port opening is in communication with a pocket configured to hold a fluid therein, the injector port configured to receive the lubricant in a first flow direction from the first port opening to the second port opening, wherein the pocket houses the lubricant therein to maintain communication between the lubricant and the first and second telescopic members.
