The pig is an open ball bearing design, the orbit is cartridge bearing which is heaps, heaps better so you can not compare the 2.

With the pig you will need to pull the fork off every couple of months and clean and regrease the bearings.

The orbit retails for over $200, around $250 if my memory is correct.
