Carbonyte bearings are constructed from high-quality stainless steel cartridge bearings made to Phil Wood's exacting specifications and stringent tolerance requirements. Carbonyte bearings use a proprietary Carbonyte grease applied to provide protection against wear while allowing for the low rolling resistance you would expect from a race-day bearing. Bearing seals are are not full-contact, so we do not recommend these bearings off road or wet/corrosive environments. This bearing is for racing or fair weather riding.

Phil Wood bearings can be used to replace bearings found in many other cycling manufacturers' parts. Please see the dimensions and part numbers to determine which bearings best meet your needs. If you need assistance determining the appropriate bearing size, please contact us. If at all possible, please provide your existing bearing dimensions (inner diameter, outer diameter, and width) so we can determine the bearing(s) you’ll need.

Founded in 1971, Phil Wood & Co. is one of the oldest American cycling component manufacturers still in existence.  Phil Wood was the first to introduce sealed bearings in bicycle hubs. The company has developed a cult following and is known for building strong timeless components.
