Hope’s tested and proven stainless bottom brackets are now available in a road specific version and make an ideal upgrade or replacement for Shimano, Race Face and with an additional conversion kit (sold separately) Truvativ/SRAM road cranksets.
The machined aluminium cups hold full stainless steel INA Swiss made cartridgebearings which are custom made to give much greater life span thanstock units and are also replaceable to reduce wastage and minimise expense. The bearings are designed to run directly onthe crankset axle, without the use of shims or spacers for increased lifespan and reliability when combined with the non contact, free running external labyrinth seal and o-rings on the lightweight internal aluminium centre tube.
