CERAMIC BSA · 2026 SELECTION
Ceramic BSA bottom brackets: match the bearings to your crankset.
BSA threading remains a strong choice for high-end road bikes. A compatible ceramic bottom bracket adds carefully selected bearings and quality finishing — without changing your frame or crankset.

Your frame is BSA. Now match the spindle.
A BSA frame alone does not determine which bottom bracket you need. Shimano 24 mm, SRAM DUB 28.99 mm and Rotor 30 mm crank spindles require different bearing interfaces.
SRAM DUB
BSA ceramic DUB
For SRAM DUB cranksets with 28.99 mm spindles. Check shell width and specified spacers, particularly for Wide configurations.

BSA ceramic 30 mm
For compatible Rotor 30 mm cranksets designed for BSA threaded assemblies. Confirm spindle length and the required spacers.

Bikone TDF Gold 2026
Gold special edition with a premium design and hybrid ceramic bearings. A technical component with a distinctive appearance.

A proven threaded standard
The cups screw into the frame instead of being pressed into place. Road BSA shells are commonly 68 mm wide; some gravel and MTB applications use 73 mm. Always confirm your exact frame specification.
Velo-Perso advice
Ceramic bearings may help reduce friction under suitable conditions, but sealing, grease, preload and maintenance all matter. A high-quality steel bottom bracket can sometimes be the more practical purchase.
Clear answers before you order.
Can I replace a Shimano BSA steel bottom bracket with ceramic?
Yes, provided your frame uses BSA threading and the replacement is designed for your Shimano 24 mm spindle. Confirm the shell width and fitting requirements too.
Can I use a 30 mm BSA bottom bracket for SRAM DUB?
No. SRAM DUB uses a nominal 28.99 mm spindle. Choose the dedicated BSA DUB model instead.
Does a BSA bottom bracket eliminate all creaking?
No. Threaded cups reduce some shell-tolerance issues, but creaking can also come from improper tightening, frame threads, pedals or other interfaces.
How does BSA differ from BB86 and T47?
These are different frame bottom bracket standards. Even with the same Shimano 24 mm crankset, the bottom bracket must match your frame.
Is the installation tool included in 2026?
Not always. Some newer CyclingCeramic threaded models are sold without an installation tool. Check the exact product description and cup-tool specification.
How much efficiency gain do ceramic bearings provide?
Friction losses may be lower in some conditions, but there is no guaranteed watt saving for every setup. Installation quality and sealing can be just as important.
