Ceramic Ball Bearings Suitable for Most Wheelsets

Ceramic hybrid bearings upgrade for your beloved wheelsets, these are the same bearings found in most high-end wheelsets and hubs, and of course, ridiculously priced most of the time.

Ceramic Hybrid Bearings have Steel races and Ceramic Balls. Ceramic Balls are suitable for applications where high loads, high speeds and extreme temperatures are factors. Long life and the need for minimal lubrication make this material appropriate for extreme applications. Ceramic is non-porous, non-magnetic, non corrosive and lighter than steel. In ball form, ceramic balls are also harder than steel and because ceramic balls are non-porous they are virtually frictionless and capable of spinning faster than steel balls.

Because ceramic is a glass like surface it has an extremely low coefficient of friction and is ideal for applications seeking to reduce friction. Ceramic balls require less lubrication and have a greater hardness than steel balls which will contribute to increased bearing life. Thermal properties are better than steel balls resulting in less heat generation at high speeds.

In a nutshell:
- Lower rolling resistance due to less deflection of the balls on load because it is of harder material
- Lighter than steel ball bearings as the density is lower.
- Balls are made of Silica Nitride (Si3N4), with a hardness of MOH 9, just for reference Diamond is MOH 10.

Compatible with most wheelsets including but not limited to:
Zipp, Reynolds, DT Swiss, Mavic, Taiwan hubs, ect..
I have proper tools for extraction and installation of bearings.
