I'll report what he finds. I've heard a lot of good things about Oust. FWIW, the free spin timing test is not very accurate for comparing bearings. What matters is how the bearings work when they have our body weight on them. I'll report on the methodology used to test them in the lab when I find t...

Please do consult with your friend. I would venture a guess that he has already done the test with OUST and has chosen not to compare NMB with OUST. I will be quite surprised to see a NMB engineer say that his product is inferior to another bearing. TK said it best, it's not the board, it's the ride...
