Ceramic Bearings Bicycle

Ceramicspeed has been one of the leading manufacturers of high performance bearings for the cycling industry since 2000.

The silicon nitride used in kogel ceramic bearing balls has a set of material properties making them perfect for bicycle wheel bearings. Miniature full ceramic and ceramic hybrid bearings are particularly well suited to both competitive and recreational bicycle applications. Fitting ceramic bearings on your bike may be a bit like fitting a formula one gearbox in your ford fiesta and expecting it to perform as well after 100 000 miles. Ceramic bearings are fitted to.

Crafting the fastest bearing products for cycling and industry since 2004. This is the case for ceramic bearings and the ch bearings are an excellent choice for entry into the technology. However the reality of why some bearing designs are faster than others doesn t always align with what is presented. Ceramic bearings are often represented as the ultimate way to minimize rolling friction on your bike.

With the exception of one product the entire line of kogel bearings runs on hybrid ceramic bearings. A ceramic hybrid bearing has steel races with ceramic balls and a full ceramic bearing has ceramic races and balls. A tiny percentage reduction in friction here can equate to a worthwhile power saving but when you re only turning at 300 rpm as you do on a bicycle a small percentage increase in efficiency will make a negligible change to your power output. When carbon fiber was first introduced there were many riders still on steel bikes in the tour de france but now every racing bike is made of carbon fiber.

Hybrid means that the balls are made of a ceramic material but the races or rings are made of a hardened steel. Hand built in denmark. The material can be polished smoother than any metal reducing friction and wear. This is different from a full ceramic bearing which would have both the balls and the races made of ceramics.

The boca bearing company have been an industry leader in ceramic bearing technology since 1987. Every single bearing is hand built in denmark under laminar flow clean room conditions. Ceramic bearings are not only here to stay they are now the standard period. The influx of ceramic bearing development into the bike industry sparked needed focus on reducing rolling friction in bearings.
