Chris King Bottom Bracket Cup Set

Product Description

Chris King Bottom Bracket Cup Set: Chris King have been making stainless steel bearings at their headquaters for 34 years & never has there been a component that benefited more from their quality than the external bottom bracket. The Chris King bottom bracket is specifically designed for crank systems with outboard bearing cups & is available in the full assortment of colours that only King can do. It all starts with the bearings. They make their own bearings in-house & their process allows them to place more balls per bearing, 24 to be exact, than their competitors
- more rolling elements per bearing translates to a stronger overall bearing system. A bottom-bracket specific upgrade to the legendary sealing system allows the bearings to be purged & re-greased using Kings precision made injector tool. This combination of strength & serviceability gives them the confidence to offer an industry-leading 5-year warranty on all bottom brackets. Compatibility: King offer bottom bracket cups in combination with a plastic centre sleeve & three anodized 2.5mm chainline spacers for 24mm crank axle systems such as Shimano Hollowtech II. Only 108 grams New for 2010 is the SRAM-compatible 24mm stepped axle configuration. The stepped axle Chris King bottom bracket makes use of a fit kit to match the crank axle to Kings standard cups & bearings but without use of chainline spacers. 125 grams. 24mm Axle systems include: Shimano Hollowtech II, Race Face X-Type, FSA Mega Exo 24mm Stepped Axle systems include: SRAM GXP, Truvativ GXP, Bontrager GXP Chris King strongly recommend using the BB External Cup Tool & torque wrench for proper installation Various colours available, but not all colours are pictured
