BKC-0811 – Italian Thread-In, Ceramic-Hybrid, XD-15, Angular Contact, Bearing Bottom Bracket for Italian-threaded framesets and Shimano 24mm Cranksets
An Enduro Bearings exclusive, our XD-15 Pro BBs feature XD-15 15° Angular Contact cartridge bearings pressed into precision machined aluminum cups that thread directly into the BB shell. Utilizing the same XD-15 steel as our XD-15 Corsa bearing, Enduro XD-15 Pro bearings offer a 15° angular contact sealed bearing in a standard-sized cartridge. These bearings feature deep-groove raceways to improve longevity and allow maximum-sized Grade 3 Silicon Nitride ceramic balls. Enduro XD-15 bottom brackets are manufactured to the highest standards at the Enduro Bearings production facility in California, USA. All XD-15 bearings combine corrosion-proof, cryogenically treated nitrogen steel races with Silicon Nitride Grade 3 ceramic balls in a proprietary process that results in the ultimate high-performance bearing setup.
Find out why Bike Radar reported the XD-15 as “Hands down, the best bottom bracket we have ever tested.” We are sure you will agree that we offer an unlimited lifetime bearing and race warranty. The most impressive feature of these bearings is, unlike other bearings, they only get better with use. As the bearings wear in, the balls make the races even smoother. So when compared to other ceramic-hybrid bearings on the market that claim speed and power advantages on day one, Enduro XD-15 bearings not only provide the same initial benefits on day one but will get even faster and smoother with time and use. In contrast, the other ceramic-hybrid options will only get slower.
