Superlap bottom bracket
So I have used the sugino 75 bottom bracket... but whats the superlap? Is it really a better bottom bracket? Will it last longer? Is it just some obserdity like the grand mighty with some couple dozen or more passes through forging. Just curious thats all.

I wonder how one could scientifically test or compare the polished and unpolished bottom brackets against each other?
I visited a site the other night in which the maker of hubs with super-duper bearings stated a specific reduction in the watts required for a given distance.
In the above case, the maker made an argument for the superior uniformity and roundness of the ball bearings.
