CeramicSpeed BB86 SRAM GXP Road Bottom Bracket – Unmatched Efficiency for Maximum Power Transfer
Engineered for cyclists who demand every watt of performance, the CeramicSpeed BB86 SRAM GXP Road Bottom Bracket delivers industry-leading efficiency, ultra-low friction, and exceptional durability. Designed exclusively for press-fit-specific frames (41mm ID shell), this bottom bracket ensures a perfect fit for SRAM and Quarq 24/22mm spindle cranks, optimizing power transfer with silky-smooth rotation.
Each bottom bracket cup is precision-machined and pre-fitted with CeramicSpeed Bearings, available in two performance levels — Standard and Coated. The Standard Bearings feature hardened-steel races paired with perfectly round CeramicSpeed Balls, achieving a frictional drag of only 0.3–0.4 watts per set, representing a 75% drag reduction over conventional bearings. The Coated Bearings go even further, featuring an advanced metallic coating that reduces drag by an additional 50% and extends bearing lifespan by 60%, offering superior corrosion resistance and longevity.
Key Features:
Optimized for SRAM & Quarq GXP Cranks: Designed for 24/22mm spindle systems in BB86 press-fit frames.
Low-Friction Ceramic Bearings: Up to 75% lower drag than standard bottom brackets for efficient power transfer.
Extended Bearing Life: Lasts at least 3x longer than conventional systems.
Coated Bearing Option: Metallic-coated races for enhanced corrosion resistance, reduced friction, and improved durability.
Grease Customization: Delivered with All-Round Grease; can be tuned with Race Day Grease (minimal drag) or Long Life Grease (maximum protection).
Precision Build: CNC-machined cups ensure perfect press-fit alignment and long-term frame integrity.
