CeramicSpeed Launches Solid Lubrication Technology Bearings with Lifetime Warranty
Lifetime warranty = The warranty does not cover failure due to alteration, misuse, inappropriate application, crash or impact damage (with the exception of cages), or incorrect installation (at the discretion of CeramicSpeed) and general wear and tear.
So general wear and tear... Isn't that what kills all bearings eventually anyway?
That being said I'd say it's a pretty safe play. Charge 10x-15x the amount for a bearing that lasts 3-5x as long. If you're the one ponying up shop prices for bearing replacement it might pencil out. Even if they last 3x as long that might mean 0-1 bearings replaced under warranty. Not a bad play. 2nd hand warranty is still 6 years with proof of purchase... pretty cool.

The Pinkbike Podcast: Episode 90 - Is Supre the Future of Trouble-Free Drivetrains? (with Cedric Eveleigh of Lal Bikes)
Not going to lie, that's super cool. Better chain wrap should reduce chain and cog wear, obviously no more dropped chains... Guessing with less leverage on the derailleur pins and mounting points derailleurs will last longer before ultimately wearing out as well. Decreasing unstprung weight on the rear is also another plus. Would love to ride a bike with this setup. #license agreement with Shimano please

Silca Releases $85, 3D-Printed, Titanium Cleats
Pinkbike is getting salty with their titles. Kinda takes the wind out of the sails of the comment section... I don't use clippers but ti clipper cleats are definitely on the radar of those who lean towards the spandex side of cycling... Never touch the road bikes myself, 90's mtb's are the only respectable choice.
