Wheels Manufacturing Thread Together Bottom Bracket

Standard press-fit bottom brackets rely on a friction fit, which can lead to creaking and premature wear. The Thread Together design features two cups that thread into each other, pulling the assembly tight against the frame shell for a more secure, stable connection that resists movement and noise.

This unit is designed specifically for frames with BB86 or BB92 bottom bracket shells, which have a 41mm diameter and a width between 86mm and 92mm. Please verify your frame's shell dimensions before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
