So its been a while since someone posted anything regarding bearings and there have been many topics about this and arguments, so I thought I would revisit this again.
So as the heading states, ceramic vs stainless, Abec#3 vs Abec#7 etc.
Im planning on changing my bearings in my reels to Abec#5 or #7 ceramics on my multiplier casting reels. The reels are magged, so there will be more control over the bearings(spool) now that wasnt there before. Is there any reason that I shouldnt fit these? It is not purely intended for attaining more distance neccessarily, but also to have longer lasting and more smoother casting bearings.
I do know that ceramics can be harder bearings, but after a bit of run in they are fantastic. For spinning where one is doing hundreds of casts per session I feel these will benefit and allow me to have the absolute maximum out of my reels, what you think?
The last factor also, is , ceramics are more expensive, but If I take into account that i have to sometimes change y bearings 2 or even 3 times a season at lets say R30 rand a bearing, soon it adds up , so on cost factor it could also in the long run save you money.
