I've seen PeakTorque do some tests, but he's chums with Hambini so there's that bias/partiality to account for. Then various YouTube bike mechanics too. Again they seem to be chums so not exactly partial, nor bench-marked.
Time bikes do/did come with Hambini bottom brackets in some models. I'm sure they could have easily gone for the Shimano, SRAM, Campy standard and saved a tonne of money, but decided to go with Hambini products for whatever reasons.
He also claims to have (had) deals with some Pro teams, but given NDAs and without insider or even public knowledge, we (or rather I) don't know who or how true the claims hold.
Just some examples.

who other than hambini himself is benchmarking his products?
If I make something and have an ecosystem of vlogs to basically say 'this is the best' its not really objective is it.
Its textbook grifter, make snake oil, say its the best, get vulnerable punters to pay for it. Happens in wellness, politics, nutrition, gaming, you name it .. if you have fallen for it and actually bought it, you are as gullible as a Liz Truss/Farage voter or Owen Jones/Novara Media enjoyer.
Shimano HT BB is just fine.
