This bearing features super smooth CeramicSpeed grade 3 Silicon Nitride balls perfectly matched within microns to hardened steel raceways, which boast an ultra-smooth polished groove designed to minimize friction and maximize efficiency. The reinforced polyamide cage securely holds the balls in place, while the low viscosity CeramicSpeed “Blue Grease” optimizes lubrication to extend bearing life significantly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with non-contact seals, these bearings effectively keep out dirt and moisture, making them ideal for various cycling disciplines including Road, TT, Triathlon, Track, Cross, and MTB. The result is superior power transfer, reduced friction, and a longer-lasting component that enhances your ride quality. Each bearing undergoes four thorough hand inspections during assembly to guarantee perfect matching of all parts, ensuring consistent and reliable performance every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe CeramicSpeed Balls outperform standard steel bearings by being 400% smoother, 128% harder, and 58% lighter. When compared to other ceramic balls in the cycling industry, they stand out with 15% greater hardness, the ability to handle 99% higher loads, and 100% smoother operation. With dimensions of 8mm inner diameter, 22mm outer diameter, and 7mm width, this bearing is a premium upgrade for any cyclist seeking durability and efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing friction for smoother, more efficient rides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnhancing power transfer across all cycling disciplines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtending bearing life with advanced lubrication and materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eResisting dirt and moisture with non-contact seal design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s NOT Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApplications requiring non-standard bearing sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnvironments with extreme contamination beyond dirt and moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse in components incompatible with 608 bearing dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacing bearings without proper installation tools or expertise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre these bearings compatible with all bicycles?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are compatible with any bike components that use 608 bearings, commonly found in hubs, wheels, and other parts, but always check your component specifications to ensure fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the coating improve performance?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe coating reduces friction and protects against corrosion, contributing to smoother rotation and longer bearing lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CeramicSpeed","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45965249020079,"sku":"101208","price":124.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/2003\/4223\/files\/101208.jpg?v=1768532742","url":"https:\/\/www.swinnertoncycles.co.uk\/products\/ceramicspeed-coated-single-bearing-608-high-performance-cycling-bearing","provider":"Swinnerton Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
