JTEKT has developed a product for the “bottom bracket”, a component around the crankshaft, for road bike bearings “ONI BEARING” and will release it in mid-March. We have reduced resistance to the utmost and improved rotation performance. Together with conventional products, it meets the even lower torque needs of road bike users.
The bottom bracket is a component that allows the crankshaft, which rotates when the pedal is pressed, to rotate smoothly. Low torque makes it easier to row. It will be sold at cycle shops nationwide.
ONI BEARING is a product that utilizes the knowledge cultivated in bearings for automobiles and industrial machinery, as well as devising a new structure to reduce rolling resistance. In the future, we plan to expand sales overseas, including Europe, the home of cycling competitions.
