Compatibility Notes

Designed for 30mm BB30-style road crank spindles.
Not suitable for Shimano 24mm or SRAM DUB 29mm cranksets unless using the correct Bikone model.
ITA is not the same as BSA, T47, BB30 press-fit, PF30, BB86/92 or BBRight.
This model is intended for road bike frame and road crank combinations.
Correct spacer setup, thread preparation and crank preload are essential for best performance.
Professional installation is strongly recommended.

Bikone Dual Cup Technology

Bikone’s DCTech system uses two precisely machined aluminium cups designed to align the bearings on both sides of the bottom bracket shell. This helps create a stronger, more stable crank interface and reduces the small movements that often cause bottom bracket creaking.

Key benefits include:

Smoother crank rotation
Reduced clicking and creaking
Better bearing alignment
Improved power transfer under load
More consistent pedalling feel
Longer bearing life when installed and maintained correctly

ITA Threaded Fitment

Italian-threaded bottom brackets are commonly found on premium road frames, classic Italian bikes and selected custom road builds. A quality ITA bottom bracket gives these bikes a secure and serviceable crank interface while preserving traditional threaded reliability.

BB30 / 30mm Crank Compatibility

This model is built for BB30-style 30mm crank spindles, giving riders the stiffness and direct power-transfer feel associated with larger spindle crank systems.

Steel Bearing Option

The steel bearing version is ideal for riders wanting reliable everyday performance and strong value.

Best suited for:

Regular road riding
High-mileage training
Commuting
Wet-weather riding
Riders prioritising durability and service life

Hybrid Ceramic Bearing Option

The ceramic version is built for riders chasing a smoother, lower-friction drivetrain feel.

Best suited for:

Road racing
Fast bunch rides
Criterium racing
Premium lightweight builds
Riders chasing marginal drivetrain gains

7075-T6 Aluminium Cups

The cups are made from high-strength 7075 aluminium with T6 treatment. This material is used because it offers excellent stiffness, durability and machining precision, helping the bottom bracket maintain alignment under pedalling load.

Fully Sealed Protection

The sealed bearing system helps protect against sweat, dust, grit, road spray and moisture. This is especially useful in Queensland conditions where bikes often face humidity, summer rain, dusty roads and rough chip-seal surfaces.

Shell Width: 70mm
Thread Type: Italian 36mm x 24TPI
Crank Spindle: BB30 / 30mm

Product Care

Install using the correct ITA / BB30-compatible bottom bracket tool.
Confirm 30mm crank compatibility before fitting.
Inspect and clean frame threads before installation.
Use grease or suitable thread preparation as recommended.
Avoid pressure washing directly around the bottom bracket seals.
Check for play, roughness or creaking during regular bike servicing.
Set crank preload correctly after installation.
Keep the bottom bracket area clean after wet or dusty rides.
Replace or service bearings if rotation becomes rough or contaminated.
Have drivetrain noises diagnosed early before they cause further wear.
