I have seen enough benefit by using ceramics to continue with them. I am gratified to know I am not alone in my good fortune. Smooth roads, and tailwinds.

Sorry if I seem too strident in my posts and I don't mean to insult your choices. Smooth roads and tailwinds indeed.

No, I don't have any personal experience with ceramic bearings, mostly because I have read the quantitative studies of others and I have concluded they don't have sufficient benefits to justify the cost. As always, it's your choice and I hope they meet your expectations.
