PRIDE EB24 Ceramic Bottom Bracket Black

The bottom bracket Pride Racing EB24 Ceramic represents the pinnacle of the French brand's range for frames with a threaded bottom bracket shell to the Euro (BSA) standard. Designed exclusively for high-level competition, this external model accommodates cranks fitted with a 24 mm spindle with surgical precision.

The major asset of this bottom bracket lies in its high-precision ceramic bearings. By almost completely eliminating internal friction compared to traditional steel balls, ceramic offers exceptional rotational smoothness. Every pedal stroke gains in efficiency, ensuring that all the energy generated by the rider is instantly transmitted to the rear wheel.

What does ceramic actually offer compared to a steel bearing? In BMX Race, the difference is mainly felt in start reactivity and the maintenance of bottom bracket rotational speed. Ceramic bearings offer less mechanical resistance (friction), allowing the bottom bracket to spin more freely and to release precious watts during accelerations.

Is it compatible with 30 mm or 22 mm spindle cranks? No. This model has an internal bearing diameter of 24 mm. It is designed exclusively for 24 mm spindles. For a different spindle size, you will need to look for the specific bottom bracket corresponding to your crankset.

Does this bottom bracket require any special maintenance? Ceramic bearings are highly performant but require a minimum of care to preserve their exceptional properties. Although they are protected by sealed bearings, it is strongly advised against directing a high-pressure jet of water directly at the bottom bracket shell when cleaning the bike, so as not to wash out the specific low-viscosity grease used for ceramic.
