Ridea 6CBB for threaded bottom bracket shells represents the application of the most advanced material ever used in a BB. The reliable and easy to install and maintain threaded connection you love, in a new and revolutionary material.
All 6CBB bottom brackets use bearings with steel races and ceramic (ZrO2Si3N4) balls. As an option, higher quality bearings with stainless steel races and 4 years of warranty are also available.
While some models are exclusive for 24 mm spindles (Ridea, Shimano and others), most 6CBB Gecko Grip are compatible with a variety of spindle diameters thanks to the use of spindle sleeves to adapt to 24, 25 (Campagnolo), 29 (Ridea and SRAM DUB) and 30 mm spindles.

FORGED CARBON
First introduced in our OSPW series, Forged Carbon has a combination of properties that makes it the best material for many cycling applications. The BB cups of all our 6CBB bottom brackets are only possible thanks to the development of this material by Ridea. Forged Carbon reduces the vibrations and it keeps its properties under very different weather conditions while keeping a low weight and high precision manufacturing measurements, making it the ideal material for bottom brackets.
NYLON SPINDLE SLEEVES
Forged Carbon is not the only exclusive material on Ridea 6CBB. Nylon bearing spindle sleeves increase performance and ease installation. Nylon is flexible for better adaptability to the spindle and it is not affected under extreme weather conditions.
