Ceramic bearings

[v101]

Hi
Is there any one out there that has a ceramic bearing bb ?If so have you had any problems with it,i have read mixed reviews
saying you have to pull it out and re grease it every time you ride in the rain.also has it lasted a reasonable amount of time?

I have.
I ran an enduro zero ceramic BB for about 15 months. it shat itself. we see a lot of that in the shop where i work. we have recently found a new supplier of cermic BBs who make them for us. so far there have been no issues whatsoever, and they come in pretty colours.

they do however make a noticable difference, and i would recomend them. what groupo do you run?
if you run sram you're in luck, the sram ceramic bbs are awesome and weve yet to see one fail.




IT would be spam if i mentioned my shop name, but yeah.

Been running Enduro Zero bearings for about two years... still running as new!

Running a Token Tiramic for 18 months now, no issues but the plastic bushing that covers the bearing has cracked on the non drive side. Still works, no noticeable difference IMO between this BB and the Ultegra it replaced.
