The silicon nitride used to make ceramic bearings combines a set of material properties that makes it perfect for bicycle bearings.
Full ceramic bike bearings.
And upgrading your bike with ceramic bearings.
Ceramic is the perfect material for any application seeking to achieve higher rpm s reduce overall weight or for extremely harsh environments where high temperatures and corrosive substances are present.
Ceramic bicycle bearings in all our products at kogel bearings we believe ceramic bearings set the gold standard for your bicycle bottom bracket derailleur pulleys and wheel bearings.
We have perfected the bearing selection manufacturing processes assembly and fit.
A full set of cyclingceramic bearings starts at 80 and ceramicspeed wheel bearings cost from 240.
The material can be polished smoother than any metal reducing friction and wear.
Full ceramic bearings have races and balls that are made entirely of ceramic material and are superior to common steel bearings in many ways.
Full ceramic bearings use ceramic races which can be lighter and provide the lowest friction but come at a durability cost.
While these full ceramic bearings don t have.
This impact leaves a very small dent or pit in the steel race.
With the exception of one product the entire line of kogel bearings runs on hybrid ceramic bearings.
Kogel is the gold standard for podium grade ceramic bicycle bearings offering high quality ceramic bottom brackets for your road mountain or gravel bike.
Ceramic is the perfect material for any application seeking to achieve higher rpm s reduce overall weight or for extremely harsh environments where high temperatures and corrosive substances are present.
Fitting ceramic bearings on your bike may be a bit like.
Additionally silicon nitride does not deform under load keeping contact points with the bearing races to a minimum.
How to get the best performance from ceramic bearings ceramic speed.
When a bike with ceramic bearings goes over a bump the ball bearing which is harder than the steel race that contains it strikes the inner surface of the race.
Extremely reliable and efficient bottom brackets that increase bottom bracket stiffness.
Full ceramic bearings have races and balls that are made entirely of ceramic material and are superior to common steel bearings in many ways.
Ceramic bearings are not cheap.
Ceramicspeed is a danish company founded.
Two types of ceramic materials there are two materials that are common.
Unsealed ceramic bearings can be used to upgrade components that don t use cartridge type bearings like cup and cone hubs.
The silicon nitride used in kogel ceramic bearing balls has a set of material properties making them perfect for bicycle wheel bearings.
