Know before you buy
No, these are specifically sized for the Dub standard. While they share the 6806 designation, the internal diameter is unique to Dub crank spindles, so they will not fit standard 6806 applications.
Yes, you will need a bearing press compatible with the Dub bottom bracket shell. It is important to use the correct drifts to ensure the bearings are seated evenly without damaging the races.
Wheels Manufacturing bearings are engineered for high-level durability and smooth rotation. They are a common upgrade for riders looking to replace worn-out stock bearings with a more precise, long-lasting component.
These bearings are designed exclusively for Dub bottom bracket systems. They are not intended for use in other bottom bracket standards, as the dimensions and tolerances are specific to the Dub interface.
Applying a light layer of high-quality waterproof grease to the bearing seat in the bottom bracket shell is recommended. This helps prevent creaking and makes future removal much easier.
