This means you will always find the right component to replace or upgrade your drivetrain.
The technology behind a silent drivetrain
This central component connects your crankset to the frame and has to withstand enormous forces with every pedal stroke. Is your bike starting to creak or are the cranks turning stiffly? Then it's time for bike maintenance and you need to replace the bottom bracket. When selecting a new bottom bracket, pay attention to the following characteristics:
- Different systems:There are two main categories: threaded bottom brackets (such as the well-known BSA or Italian) and press-fit bottom brackets (PressFit). Frames with threads excel in ease of maintenance, while press-fit systems are often lighter and stiffer.
- Determining the correct fit:The fit depends on the exact dimensions of your frame's bottom bracket shell and the axle thickness of your crankset. These must match exactly.
- Models per discipline:For a mountain bike bottom bracket or gravel bike bearings, superior sealing against water and mud is necessary to prevent premature wear. For a road bike or triathlon bike, it's all about minimal resistance and weight saving. High-quality, smoothly running bearings ensure that no valuable watts are lost.
