  • i have sealed steel bearings and if this spin test is an accurate way to measure friction my bears go way beyond the ceramic hey i still want to try them someday

    i replaced them and have about 2500 miles on them you can see on my vid i am going to make now.

  • Next time stop moving the dam camera around looks stupid leave it in one place .

  • Im going to put ceramic bearings in my mail box door!

  • Yes this is a subjective test but that excuse only gets you so far. Even if the wheel is a little heavier(which you can't be sure of) or the seals are junk(you're just making up excuses there) the bearings are still better. And they better be!!! I'm not much of a biker but just doing research on ceramic bearings. If you are paying several times the price the performance better be improved. If you go for hundreds of miles I'm sure you'll notice the difference.

  • This is stupid a heaver wheel spins longer due to the stored inertia inside of the weight of the wheel. You should have gotten three of the same wheels and spuns them with a moving motor like a treadmill.

  • You should ride it! I mean in practice, the same rider will not bee several times faster if the wheel spin several times longer. That should be a real test, not this , ROFLMAO.

  • por que no con las de atras?????

  • Ceramic bearing are ok for machinery that operates at high heat and high rpm, but a cyclist wouldn't notice any difference. They are a waste of money. 

  • @m015094 They are more durable.

  • I agree this test is subjective. I have a full set of enduro Zero bearings and they don't spin that long. They are smooth as hell but the bearing seals are labrynth and therefore there's some friction. I'll bet the seals on these ceramic bearings are crap. Great for a single race but then you'll need to service them. The other factors are wheel build. The heavier wheels will spin longer yes, however it depends on how the tire is mounted and how well the wheel rim is balanced.

  • they are not a fart on the first one

  • Read durianriders comment. This is NOT a valid test at all.

  • what ceramic bearing o what brand are real good

  • @MegaSinar these are F1 Ceramic bearings.

  • What song is this?

  • grease type>bearing composition

  • Its a pretty subjective test!! First of all the full ceramic rim is a lot heavier than the mavics used in the 2 other front wheels.

    And how do we know what bearing tension was used???

    what about force that was used to spin the wheels??

    Subjective test!!!! :)

  • @durianriders Next time you do a you tube demo, use a weight calibrated to hit the rubber of the tire at all the same distances, it will give more credibility to the demo.

  • Thanks a lot for this video. I am building a supermileage car that the ceramic bearings would help a lot over our 38 minute runs.

  • Im now determined to catch a full set of full ceramics for my longboard

  • with wheels that small its highly unlikely you will notice a difference unless your riding on a glass smooth surface

  • did u notice a diffrence when riding?

  • dang thats awsome
