New ceramic bearing player -JTEKT and ONI bearings

Full disclosure: I'm an employee of JTEKT, but handle their Aero, Auto, and Industrial products. Moderators, if this should be moved to Vendors please do. This is not an official Product Announcement, but just me sharing the news.

JTEKT (formerly went to market as Koyo) has introduced their ONI bearings specifically for the cycling market. We are making ceramic hybrid bearings for hubs and bottom brackets. We invented the ceramic hybrid bearing back in 1984 and applying everything we know to make these. I know plenty of skeptics for ceramic bearings, marginal gains and all that. Here's a link for more info:

If anyone wants to nerd out on the details, they can PM me and I'll share. I'm purposely leaving out the if/where/how to buy because I don't want this to sound too much like an ad.
