technologies
It doesn't matter whether you are an enthusiast or a professional cyclist, your only desire is to always obtain the best performance, the OSPW oversized cage and pulley system is ready to satisfy these needs.
The oversized system consists of two alloy pulleys equipped with the incredible CeramicSpeed bearings and an ultra-light polyamide and carbon cage with titanium hardware. This combination allows the OSPW system to offer better performance than standard pulleys and cages offered on the market.
Both OSPW systems for Shimano and Sram have been tested by the independent laboratory Friction Facts (which since November 2016 has been incorporated by CeramicSpeed for closer collaboration between R&D and testing). These tests concluded that the Oversized Pulley Wheel System (OSPW) guarantees a friction level of 40%-60% lower than the classic 11 tooth pulleys, in particular thanks to the increased size of the pulleys this cage allows an effective saving of watts starting from 1.6W for the Sram OSPW cage and 2.4W using the Shimano OSPW cage.
High quality ceramic products
All the components used for the CeramicSpeed bearings and chains have been carefully selected by CeramicSpeed technicians to guarantee durable and high quality products, this allows us to design and create the best products on the market capable of satisfying the needs of the best athletes in the world but even the desires of the most dedicated enthusiasts.
CeramicSpeed products allow each cyclist to improve their performance, increasing their chances of getting on the podium but at the same time improving their sensations while riding.
The balls used for CeramicSpeed bearings are made of high quality ceramic which allows for the creation of an ultra-smooth surface with a significantly lower friction coefficient than the classic steel or ceramic balls currently used on bicycles around the world. These characteristics allow CeramicSpeed bearings to offer incredible impact resistance but at the same time an uncommon longevity.
Ceramic balls and their polyamide cage are made to match (within a micron difference) with the best steel sealing rings equipped with shiny surfaces with a low friction coefficient. To complete and protect its bearings CeramicSpeed uses a specific grease from low viscosity and anti-friction seals to keep water and dirt away from the ceramic balls.
To guarantee the best performance, each bearing is produced in Denmark in locations with regulated ventilation and isolated from any type of contaminated agent and inspected four times during the production process to ensure that all components fit together perfectly.
CeramicSpeed ceramic balls
The quality of the ceramic balls determines the performance and longevity of a bearing, for this reason all CeramicSpeed balls are made of grade 3 Silicon Nitride, which allows the highest standards to be achieved in terms of surface finish and roundness of the balls.
The CeramicSpeed spheres guarantee impact resistance, surface uniformity and unparalleled roundness, capable of standing out and offering incredible performance when compared to the classic ceramic or steel spheres used for many components currently on sale.

Maintenance
Regarding the maintenance of the OSPW system, it is important to always keep your ceramic bearings well lubricated in order to ensure the best performance and maximum longevity. to do this it is recommended to add a sufficient quantity of oil through the pre-established lubrication points on the internal plate of the cage, so that the oil can penetrate the bearing optimally. We recommend carrying out this procedure when lubricating the chain, after washing the bike or after rides in adverse weather conditions.
