Hope MTB BSA bottom bracket
It is common knowledge that it rains a lot on the "island". The Brits at Hope have set themselves the task of developing a bottom bracket that defies any influence of nature.
The basis are bearing shells and a center sleeve made of CNC-milled aluminum. O-rings between the center sleeve and the bearing shells prevent water and dirt from entering the inside of the bottom bracket via the frame. Stainless steel ball bearings, which are manufactured for Hope in Switzerland by bearing specialist INA, rotate in the bearing shells. The ball bearings are double-sealed and are additionally protected by a labyrinth seal.
Suitable for all Shimano Hollowtech II, Race Face X-Type and FSA Megaexo cranks. With an additional kit, the bottom bracket is also suitable for SRAM/Truvativ cranks with GXP axle. The kit is available in our store.
