SRAM - GXP Team Bottom Bracket

GXP is different - and better. Other systems rely on side-loaded bearings to eliminate play, causing bearing wear. GXP captures the left-side bearing between the spindle and the left crank arm and allows the drive-side bearing to float axially on the spindle. There&';s no need to side-load bearings during adjustment. No excess wear. And a much simpler installation. Just tighten to the proper specifications and you&';re ready to roll, worry-free. GXP&';s two bicycle-specific cartridge bearings and eight seals ensure a smooth, long-lasting ride. The new Gutter seal system takes a two stage approach in directing contaminates away from the bearings providing longer bearing life. GXP&';s new Gutter Seal design also reduces friction, 35% less drag than the current GXP BB, improving rider feel and performance. Gutter seal system has deeper installation tool grooves which provide stability and support while applying torque to the adapter cups. This new design and material choice has dropped 15g out of our GXP BBs. [SPECS] MATERIAL: Cups: Alloy -- Bearings: Steel THREADING: English SHELL WIDTH: 68mm WEIGHT: 119g COMPATIBILITY: The SRAM GXP Team Bottom Bracket is only compatible with the SRAM Omnium Crank Set and other GXP style crank sets.
