Enduro Bearing 17x26x5mm MAX
What Is It?
The Enduro Bearing 17x26x5mm MAX is a high-load sealed cartridge bicycle bearing designed mainly for MTB suspension pivots, linkage systems, and high-stress frame pivot points.
The MAX design means it uses a full complement of balls (no cage/retainer), allowing the bearing to carry higher loads and better withstand impacts, which is critical in aggressive off-road riding.
Key Features
- High-performance sealed cartridge bearing
- MAX design (full ball complement, no cage)
- Compact 17 x 26 x 5 mm size
- Designed for high radial and side loads
- Rubber seals to keep out dirt, water, and mud
- Pre-greased for smooth installation and use
- Optimised for MTB suspension pivot systems
- Excellent durability in harsh riding conditions
