Kogel BB86 Ceramic Bottom Bracket

Kogel BB86 Ceramic Bottom Bracket

When every watt counts, the Kogel BB86 Bottom Bracket offers smoother operation, better efficiency, and higher speeds with every pedal stroke, along with exceptional durability in real-world conditions.

Hand-built in Texas, it features Kogel's high-quality ceramic balls, which are more symmetrical and have stricter tolerances than steel ones. The ceramic balls run on high-grade stainless-steel races, resulting in lower friction, more efficient power transfer, and a smoother ride. Designed to last, the bottom bracket uses the finest materials and refined assembly processes, considering the rigours your ride will place on it.

The bottom bracket stands up to heavy use without deformation or loss of efficiency and is crafted with a choice of specifically tailored seals. The road seals are engineered to offer the lowest possible resistance and reduce drag, allowing for optimal performance without compromise.

The cross seals are designed to protect against mud, dirt, and water during MTB, gravel, and CX rides, ensuring the bottom bracket performs at its best. This delivers silky smooth action and helps harness every watt, with long-lasting performance and reliability. They lose just 0.5 watts compared to using the road seals on the bottom bracket.
