Enduro Bearing 15x24x5mm MAX
What Is It?
The Enduro Bearing 15x24x5mm MAX is a high-load sealed cartridge bicycle bearing designed specifically for MTB suspension pivots, linkage systems, and other high-stress frame applications.
The MAX designation means it uses a full complement of balls (no cage/retainer), allowing more load distribution inside the bearing. This makes it stronger and more durable under shock loads and side loading, which are common in aggressive mountain biking.
Key Features
- High-strength sealed cartridge bearing
- MAX design (no cage, full ball complement)
- Compact 15 x 24 x 5 mm size
- Optimised for heavy radial and side loads
- Rubber seals to protect against dirt, water, and mud
- Pre-greased for smooth installation and long life
- Designed for MTB suspension pivots and linkage points
- Increased durability under impact and rough terrain

Who Is It Suitable For?
- Mountain bikers (XC, trail, enduro, downhill)
- E-MTB riders
- Suspension mechanics and workshops
- Riders servicing full-suspension frames
- Cyclists replacing worn pivot bearings
- Riders riding in harsh, muddy, high-impact conditions
Who Should Use It?
- Riders experiencing play, creaking, or rough suspension movement
- Mechanics rebuilding MTB linkage or pivot systems
- Enduro and downhill riders under heavy frame stress
- E-bike riders with increased load on suspension components
- Workshop technicians performing full frame bearing overhauls
- Anyone needing long-lasting pivot durability
Why MAX Bearings Are Used Here
The MAX design improves performance in pivot systems by:
- Increasing the number of balls inside the bearing
- Spreading load across more contact points
- Handling high shock and side loads better than standard bearings
- Making them ideal for non-constant rotation joints (pivots)
