CeramicSpeedBearingsand pulleys

CeramicSpeed was founded in 2004 in Holstebro, Denmark, where the company is still based. The idea behind the brand is that bearings with ceramic balls running in hardened races turn with less friction than standard steel bearings, and almost everything it makes grows out of that idea.

The OSPW is the upgrade most riders know. It replaces the stock derailleur cage and small pulleys with a longer carbon cage and oversized pulley wheels, so the chain bends less as it wraps around them. CeramicSpeed builds model-specific systems for current Shimano and SRAM derailleurs, from OSPW RS and the ALPHA versions with aluminum pulleys to OSPW X for 1x gravel and mountain drivetrains.

At the bottom bracket, BB ALPHA covers BSA, T47, BB86, BB92, EVO386 and Italian shells for SRAM DUB, Shimano 24mm and 30mm spindles, and OHD headset bearings and kits bring the same approach to the front end. The UFO range looks after the chain itself: UFO Drip for all, wet and indoor conditions, UFO Ultra Endurance wax for immersion waxing, UFO TECH bearing grease, and the UFO CLEAN bike wash and drivetrain cleaner.

Pulley systems, bottom brackets and headsets are specific to the derailleur, frame and crank, so Dragonspine Cycling confirms compatibility before an order ships. Everything listed ships across the continental US. For anything in the CeramicSpeed range not shown online, contact the Chicago location at 4357 N Milwaukee Ave or call +1 (872) 946-7006.
