Frictionless ceramic spin, 77 grams, and the exact race technology trusted by Tadej Pogačar.

Spin a Shimano crankset installed with this Bikone on your workstand and the difference hits you instantly: it turns endlessly, completely silent, with zero drag. Developed in direct collaboration with UAE Team Emirates mechanics to power Tadej Pogačar through the grueling stages of the Tour de France, the Bikone BSA Aero Gold Limited Edition bottom bracket delivers WorldTour-proven efficiency to BSA threaded road bikes running 24 mm Shimano cranksets.

Crafted in a strictly numbered edition of just 500 pieces worldwide, this special release is engineered to claim every possible marginal gain on the road. The Gold anodized finish adds a head-turning visual statement right beneath your bottom bracket shell—the ultimate finishing touch when you set out to build your dream bike with boutique precision. Beneath the surface, CNC-machined 7075-T6 aluminum cups maintain razor-sharp bearing alignment under explosive sprint power. Double-sealed ABEC-5 / P5 hybrid ceramic bearings with axial dust covers shield the races from grit and rain, while the smooth, notchless non-drive side cup eliminates air turbulence under the frame.

Workshop & installation tips: A pro workshop tip straight from our bench: thoroughly clean and degrease the frame's BSA threads before installation. In our shop, we always coat the aluminum threads with quality anti-seize paste to permanently silence drivetrain creaks under heavy pedal pressure. Tighten both cups to spec using the dedicated Bikone tool and a calibrated torque wrench—precision installation is what ensures flawless performance mile after mile.
