ceramic is overkill, no need for them on a bike really, it's just 'posh'.
Ceramic is useful in things like turbo's and superchargers, things that spin insanely fast and get really hot.
Your bike or anyone else's, won't have either so ceramic is a dead loss.
[edit] infact, i believe ceramic bearings were designed for turbos in the racing industry cos the steel bearings limited their potential.
