Either way, there is no way to know if their 0.1mm oversize is big enough or, as will be the case for most bikes, is actually way too big. Believe us when we say that 0.1mm is gigantic. Isn’t bigger a good thing? Answer: Only if it’s the right size, because bearings that fit too tight will not run smoothly, in many cases barely turning, and this means not just wattage-sucking, dismal performance, but a drastic reduction in bearing service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is why we only use high-quality, standard size Shimano bearings with the right retaining compound and hardware to solve problems with Trek BB90 bikes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT OUR BEARING CHOICES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCeramitech Bearings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our Si3n4 hybrid BB90 ceramic bearings feature ultra-spherical silicon nitride balls matched to SAE 52100 chrome steel bearing races that have been processed with additional heat treatment and polishing steps.

WS2 has an affinity for oils and greases, which means it maintains a hydrodynamic layer of lubricant where it’s needed most. The result is astonishing spin performance and increased endurance.
