Pride Racing EB24 Ceramic Bottom Bracket Silver

The bottom bracket Pride Racing EB24 Ceramic represents the top of the range from the French brand for frames fitted with a threaded Euro (BSA) standard bottom bracket shell. Designed exclusively for high-level competition, this external model accepts 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 over steel bearings? In BMX Race, the difference is felt primarily in responsiveness at the start and in maintaining bottom bracket rotational speed. Ceramic bearings offer less mechanical resistance (friction), allowing the crankset to spin more freely and release valuable watts during accelerations.

Is it compatible with 30 mm or 22 mm spindle cranksets? 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 that matches your crankset.

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