Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket (Shimano)Designed for use with all Shimano and FSA cranksets with a 24mm axle diameter, Prime's Threaded BB is a high quality bottom bracket. Precision made for durability and smoothness; Prime Bottom Brackets keep your bike running smoother for longer.Low Friction Bottom BracketDesigned so that the bearings rest on the axle of the crank, these BBs provide a straight load to the bearings, which means your BB will last longer. This also allows us to make the Prime Threaded BB with tighter tolerances, so it runs smoother with less friction. This means you'll require less effort to make it up that hill or sprint for the line.To keep our Threaded BB running smoother for longer, we use special seals that keep water out of the bearings. We use multiple smaller seals, which reduces friction and provides a better barrier against moisture and dirt. Our bearings themselves are manufactured to precision and packed with slick, waterproof grease.All of the above combine to make the Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket the ideal choice for riders who want the best from their bike components.Please note: BSA & ITA options available, so please ensure you select the correct item from the drop down.Features: Bearing: Premium Stainless Steel Frame Type: BSA or Italian Threaded Crank Type: Shimano/FSA (24mm) Compatibility: Compatible with 68mm Road BB shells Installation: Shimano TL-FC24 bottom bracket tool adaptor required to install Weight: 69gBuy Prime Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
Selle SMP Drakon Road Saddle The Selle Drakon saddle is developed for anyone with a medium-wide pelvis.

The Drakon model is the intermediate solution between the Dynamic and Lite 209 models.Features: Use: Road, MTB Padding: Foamed elastomer Body: Carbon fibre filled with Nylon 12 Covering: Real leather for the black models and microfibre for the coloured models Frame/Rails: AISI 304 stainless steel tube Selle SMP completely free central channel Original eagle-beak nose offers flat base for efforts when sitting Raised rear profile avoids pressure on the coccyx when riding on rough roads Ideal saddle for sports or leisure cycling Suited for people with a medium-wide pelvisTechnologies: SMP4BIKE: SMP's set a fundamental objective: "To reduce pressure on the perineum and the consequent pressing of neuro-vascular structures in order to decrease the incidence of genitourinary problems and disorders in cyclists". To pursue this objective, they set further goals: their saddles must have an innovative design and top quality. Research and development activities led to defining exclusive patents regarding shape, curvature and the dimensions of the various parts that make up the saddle The nose of the saddle (Beak): The characteristic "beak" shape has been designed to provide a flat base for efforts when sitting, for example when facing long uphill climbs and as help in descents, offering greater bike control using the thighs. Furthermore, the most important thing is that the "sensitive areas" are not pressed upward The central channel: The central channel's unusual dimensions permits the "sensitive areas" of the human body not undergo any pressure Cyclist's sitting position: Body weight is divided between the rear and the lower part of the ischial tuberosities. The position is helped by the rear profile shaped of the saddle in such a way to avoid pressure on the coccyx when riding on rough roads. The length of the bars/frame: It permits any cyclist to find the correct position on the saddle, making installation particularly simple and efficacious on practically any frame/seat post combinationBuy Selle SMP Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
