REAL-TIME CADENCE MEASUREMENT
A vital aspect when measuring the power generated on your bike is the precision of real-time cadence reading. Other power meters in the market use accelerometers to estimate rotation that sometimes lack accuracy and require a lot of data processing. We have developed Direct cadence, a real-time cadence meter that detects your cycling cadence at all times as you are
DIRECT MEASUREMENT FROM THE SENSOR
Our patented power reading system is not altered by the position of the chainset. This technology directly reads the force you apply on your bike’s bottom bracket through the pedals. A direct signal provides real-time data at all times. This results in an instant and reliable measurement system, avoiding interferences caused by estimations.
OPTIMAL USE OF BALL BEARINGS
Loads supported by the bearings in the bottom bracket are transmitted from the spindle through the balls. In normal cartridge bearings, the lower balls are the ones that support the entire load. Our patented POWER SET® system ensures all balls support equal loads. Thus, guaranteeing a smooth pedalling and a greater durability of bottom bracket bearings.
+ STIFFNESS + DURABILITY + SMOOTHNESS
Angular contact ball bearings support both axial and radial loads. These bearing types cannot be separated; therefore, they are mounted in pairs.
In a standard single row radial ball bearing, only 3 or 4 balls make contact when pedalling. But with our patented preload system, all balls are engaged, spreading force over a larger surface, decreasing friction, and minimising wear
STABLE PRELOAD FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE
The amount of preload to be applied during the assembly has been determined carefully, taking into account several factors such as the required rigidity of the assembly, bearing life, friction of the bearing, as well as the load to be applied from the cyclist.
Thanks to the preload, the force is distributed among all the balls using the entire raceway to distribute the load.
MAKE IT SIMPLE, MAKE IT RELIABLE
Our exclusive double-cup system provides a perfect perpendicularity between bearings in bottom brackets. Frames with a lower tolerance may cause friction and durability issues. This results in a poor lifespan and high friction issues. This double-cup system guarantees that bearings will be perfectly balanced even in these cases.
Easy to install and remove, with only two superimposed parts.
The central part is fixed by the tight contact of both aluminium cups. This ensures maximum precision and protection against moisture and corrosion
HIGH-QUALITY MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Our quality standards are key in offering high-performance services and products. That is why our quality department is of vital importance in both manufacturing processes and communication among our employees.
HARDER – LIGHTER – MORE RESISTANT
High-performance bearing experts. Ceramic ball bearings offer a superior corrosion resistance, greater dimensional stability, lower density, higher heat resistance. All this translates into a more efficient material for bottom brackets.
HIGH-QUALITY MANUFACTURING PROCESS
That is why all our BB hubs have been normalised with heat treatments such as T6. This process not only improves the product’s lifespan, but it also improves its resistance considerably.
