ENDURO 3800 MAX Suspension Bearing - 10mm x 19mm x 8mm

Enduro Bearings pioneered MAX type bearings over 20 years ago for bicycles to address the challenges associated with mountain bike pivots. MAX-type bearings provide 35-40% more load capacity than standard Angular-Contact bearings by utilizing a special design where the maximum number of balls are inserted into the bearing, via a custom ground slot in the races. The additional balls, combined with deep race grooves in these bearings providing greater lateral support for the twisting and multi-directional forces associated with mountain bike pivots. 
 

The extra-wide double-row design greatly reduces flex in the suspension linkage while doubling the bearing contact area. This bearing has been used as a suspension pivot bearing by Trek bicycles.
