Rootar, why is that exactly? Does the ceramic chip when it encounters dirt? I would think not since the ceramic balls are much harder than the dirt. If anything I would think they don't run them because they wear out eventually and they cost much more to replace... Which, if you aren't sponsored by a bearing company, is a bad thing.
