TANGO Bottom Bracket

TANGO Bottom Bracket

TANGO delivers easy integration and reliable long-term performance for city, trekking, and mountain bikes. OEM teams choose TANGO for its easy cable integration and flexible shell options. 

TANGO is available in two versions:

TANGO fits 68 mm and 73 mm BSA threaded bottom bracket shells, with an extra-long version available for 83 mm housings.
