Hellbender 70 BB30 Bottom Bracket

BB30 is a bottom bracket standard that features a 30mm diameter shell, allowing for a lighter and more efficient connection between the crankset and the bike frame. This design not only reduces weight but also simplifies installation and maintenance, making it a popular choice for high-performance bicycles.

440C stainless steel is known for its exceptional hardness and corrosion resistance. This means that components made from this material, such as bearings in a bottom bracket, can withstand heavy use and harsh conditions without degrading, ensuring a smoother ride and longer lifespan for your bike.

Marine grease is a specialized lubricant designed to resist water and salt exposure, making it ideal for protecting your bike's bottom bracket. Using marine grease helps keep the bearings functioning smoothly and prevents rust and damage, especially if you ride in wet or coastal environments.

Dual lip seals are advanced sealing mechanisms that provide extra protection against dirt, dust, and moisture entering sensitive areas like the bearings in a bottom bracket. The dual lip design ensures a tighter seal, which helps maintain optimal performance and extends the life of your bike components.

Anodized machined aluminum refers to aluminum that has been treated to create a protective oxide layer, enhancing its resistance to corrosion and wear. The machining process ensures precise shaping for a perfect fit. This combination results in durable, high-quality bottom bracket cups that contribute to the overall performance and longevity of your bike.

To determine if your bike is compatible with BB30 components, check the specifications of your bike frame, particularly the bottom bracket shell diameter. If it measures 68mm or 73mm wide with a 30mm inner diameter, it is BB30 compatible. If you're unsure, consult your bike manufacturer or a local bike shop for assistance.
