CORSE DYNAMICS Tapered Steering Stem Bearing Kit: 35mm
Desertcart purchases this item on your behalf and handles shipping, customs, and support to British Virgin Islands.
Description
- Tapered roller bearings are uniquely designed to manage both thrust and radial loads on rotating shafts and in housings. As opposed to ball bearings with only handle a single load (steering rotation but not the load of riding the bike down the road).
- The small disadvantage of a tapered bearing is the large bearing surface area can cause increased bearing drag versus ball bearings (especially noticeable in un-lubricated applications), the advantage is the same increased surface area provides increased rigidity and overall control in riding conditions creating a more positive feel.
- Many companies use taper bearings from the factory on their steering stems, unfortunately Ducati isn't one of them.
- The best compliment when upgrading your suspension. Helps eliminate head shake and requires less maintenance than stock roller bearings.
- Kit comes complete with both upper and lower taper bearings, races, and seals.
