CeramicSpeed BB ALPHA

This bottom bracket is designed for frames with a 46mm press-fit shell width of 68mm. It is specifically engineered to adapt 24mm spindle cranks to these PF30 shells, so ensure your crankset matches that spindle diameter before purchasing.

The BB ALPHA features custom-engineered seals and precision dust covers specifically designed to keep moisture and grit out of the bearings. While it maintains the low-friction performance CeramicSpeed is known for, these seals offer significantly improved protection compared to standard race-focused bearings, making it suitable for demanding conditions like mountain biking.

Yes, the BB ALPHA includes a simplified spacer tube and a lighter cup construction that streamlines the installation process. It is designed to be more user-friendly for mechanics and home riders alike, reducing the time and complexity typically associated with press-fit bottom bracket setups.

This model uses grade-3 Silicon Nitride ceramic balls paired with hardened stainless-steel races. This combination significantly reduces friction and increases durability, allowing the bearings to spin more efficiently and outlast standard steel options, especially under the high loads of mountain biking.

The lifetime warranty is a testament to the durability of the materials used, such as the hardened stainless-steel races. It covers manufacturing defects and long-term reliability, ensuring that you are protected against premature failure under normal riding conditions.
