Giant Bikes Bottom Brackets
Kogel Bearings offers two versions of bottom brackets for Giant bikes, a 24mm ceramic bottom bracket for Shimano, Sram GXP and Rotor 24mm spindles, along with a 30mm ceramic bottom bracket for BB30, 386EVO, Rotor and Cannondale SiSL2 crank sets.
Choosing the Right Bottom Bracket
Even though the frame dimensions are slightly different between Giant road and mountain bikes, our bottom brackets are the same. Only your choice for road or cross seals separates the two.
PressFit Not PressFit30
Giant Bicycles has a long collaboration with Shimano. It is no surprise that Giant's frames follow the BB86 and BB92 standard developed by Shimano. The official name is PressFit, but we tend to avoid it since it is too confusing with PressFit30.
WHY Upgrade/Replace Your Bottom Bracket
Even new bikes with new high-end drivetrains can, and usually do, ship with bottom brackets using steel bearings.
Even if perfectly maintained, those steel bearings just won't roll as smoothly or efficiently as our ceramic steel bearings.
Kogel Ceramic Bearings are:
- More symmetrical (i.e. round) and built to stricter tolerances than steel bearings
- More efficient for power transfer than standard bearings
- And, won't deform, flat-spot, crack or get pitted
Beyond the basics of keeping your bottom bracket clean and maintained, perhaps the most important step is ensure your bike's best performance is using a bottom bracket manufactured with high-quality ceramic bearings.

RIDING ON BORROWED TIME
No amount of bearing grease can fix a cheap bottom bracket. It will never ride as efficiently as a ceramic-based bottom bracket. Over time the performance only gets worse becoming, literally, a drag on each pedal stroke.
DRIVETRAIN BLISS
Now imagine riding your bike with ceramic bearing components, feeling the silky smooth 100% power transfer from each pedal stroke to your rear wheel. Your crankset spins almost completely silent with hardly any effort. A feeling lasting for years, not months.
