COMPOSITE PARTS (MADE IN GERMANY)

All threaded cups feature a thread as per BS 1,375x24.

Our cups and sleeves are injection-moulded in Germany and are made of high-performance composite.

All cups – except the ones featured by X-CELL R and X-CELL RT 2.0 – now feature a toothing that allows for them to be retightened with a PEDRO’S® assembly wrench. This operation can be performed without disassembling any drive components (chain wheel, crank set, crank arms). That saves time and costs on the OEM’s and particularly on the dealer’s side.

 

STEEL PARTS (MADE IN GERMANY)

Our spindles and sleeves are forged/CNC-machined in Germany and are made of German premium material.

A2B-coated spindles featured by models for city and trekking bicycles can additionally be coated with Deltacoll® (for highest protection against corrosion).

 

COMPATIBILITY TO VARIOUS BB-HOUSINGS

All of our bb-sets – except FATJIVE – perfectly match standard bb-housings featuring a width of 68 mm.

All of our bb-sets that feature a sleeve – except X-CELL R, X-CELL RT 3.0 and FATJIVE – are also available in a version that ensures compatibility with bb-housings featuring a width of 73 mm. Respectively, the compatible models are COUNTRY, BASIC, PASO, TOPAZ, IBEX, JIVE, ZUMBA, and TANGO. Please keep in mind that the chain line is extended by 2,5 mm when assembling one of these models in a bb-housing featuring a width of 73 mm.

FATJIVE is designed for bb-housings with a width of 100 mm only.

If you require a bb-set for bb-housings of any other width we can also offer customized solutions.
