I have been looking around at some website, and something cross my mind.
What is the difference between these Reel Bearing descriptions?

Bearings: 4
Bearings: 4 B/B
Bearings: 4BB, 1RB
Bearings: 4+1

Thanks

You can have different type bearings. OilLite, a porous bronze bearing.
Works fine in a lot of places. b/b Ball bearing. Less drag, more costly,
actually the most expensive of the 3 types. RB Roller bearing. Is used a
lot as an anti-reverse bearing on the handle. RB can be bidirectional such
as your cars wheel bearings or designed with a ramp to be a clutch / one way
only bearing.

be there are also diffent grades of bearings
