Description of πŸ”’ 6806 Sealed Bearings by Wheels Manufacturing

High chromium steel bearing races. High quality rubber seals that won't interfere with the balls themselves. The seals simply seal out contamination without increasing any rolling resistance. High quality lithium grease. These bearings are acceptable replacements for any OEM bearing, already on your bike, they are economical and long lasting.

Perfect fit on bearings

For BB30 bottom bracket. I had to replace the factory SRAM Red bearings with these. I was worried that without the factory bearings the fit wouldn't be perfect. This causes the bottom bracket to squeak. However, these fit perfectly! No problem. Quiet and smooth. After a couple of tough races and a couple of long practice rides, they showed great results. I highly recommend this camp. Many Thanks.

Pros
  • High chrome plated steel bearing cages.
Cons
  • disappearing

Fine BB30 Bearings - Ball Bearings

If you want BB30 bearings I don't think you could do better than these. I used to have SRAM ceramic bearings. They spun no smoother and freer than these and didn't last as long. One thing I do and you might consider adding some lubrication on a regular basis as the bearings aren't well protected in the BB30 design. I do this every few thousand miles or sooner when driving on wet roads. Remove the crank, pry off the outer seal with a thin blade, apply some light grease with your fingertip and…

Pros
  • High quality rubber seals that do not affect the balls themselves.
Cons
  • Can't remember

Misleading advertising! Shows gold with black sigils and .

Misleading advertising! Showing gold with black seals meaning ABEC-5 bearings, blue seals and silver rings were introduced as ABEC-3, a step down towards OEM. There were several with the same result, check the reviews. Update 08/14/2016: Upgraded from 1 star to 3 stars due to a partial refund to make up for a misplaced listing. This would have earned 5 stars if posted correctly. Although they're lower quality, which I didn't want, and I still have to get ABEC-5 and install them, I'll use them…

Pros
  • Seals easily isolate dirt without increasing rolling resistance
Cons
  • Only available in white
