One question: What about angular contact bearings? You see these being used in bottom brackets on occasion, for instance by WheelsMFG. What's the advantage? Are they more durable? Are they easier to preload right? Why do we rarely see them in hubs nowadays when - to my understanding - all the loose ball bearing assemblies that used to be common in hubs are in principle angular contact, right?
@PeakTorque Жыл бұрын
This question keeps coming up so I'll pin it. In my opinion we went away from cup and cone bearings in hubs because, and some of these reasons are why we don't use cartridge AC bearings in hubs; 1. Commercial. Only Shimano has/had the ability to in-house produce cup and cones at high enough volume and quantity to make them viable. 2. Weight: cup and cone and angular contact setups are generally heavier. 3. Drag: AC bearings normally have a higher dynamic friction than norma deep groove ball bearings. 4. Packaging: AC bearings are less readily available in as many sizes, so it can be hard to find one to neatly fit into an extremely lightweight/complex hub design. 5. Tolerances. As we know bike industry tolerances are shit. Preload tolerances are crucial in AC bearings as they can only really take axial load properly in one direction. So a pair need to be 'matched' which is highly costly. 6. Radial load. For a given size envelope an AC bearing has a lower radial load rating than a deep groove ball bearing. This is where most of the load is coming from (rider weight, bump input etc). There are more reasons im sure!
@sebastianm2381 Жыл бұрын
@@PeakTorque Excellent explanation. Thank You very much! I'm surprised to read that drag is higher for AC bearings. My completely unscientific subjective impression has always been that nothing spun as freely and easily as a properly set up and preloaded cup and cone hub. In fact I had a front wheel with a Shimano hub that virtually spun forever.

I currently have a Wheels Manufacturing BB with Enduro's angular contact bearings (steel) to see how it's like living with a pair. (this is also my first quality BB in 10 years of riding) Since this BB should be easily rebuildable, I can swap to radial bearings on any future full service.

@@sebastianm2381 The drag on an angular contact bearing "may" be higher when loaded radially, however it's significantly lower when loaded axially. Different horses for different courses. Of course the design of a particular angular contact bearing could influence that as well, since "angular contact" does not imply a "fixed in stone" angle of the contact face.

Much of what the bike industry favors and tends to trend to is cost and ability to get the general consumer hyped up to buy it. For example in 20 years gravel bikes (I'm betting that road bikes too) are going to be largely dual suspension but consumers typically buy designs without suspension. Suspension designs are more complicated to engineer and more costly to manufacture but consumers aren't going to readily spend the extra money to make it worth the extra hassle to make. In fact most likely they would make more money selling a bike without suspension (despite it being easier to design, manufacture and market). It's a similar idea to angular contact cartridge bearings used in hubs and bottom brackets. My old mountain bike has some wtb new paradigm hubs on it and they've been brilliant for the past 25 years. Angular contact is expensive to do half decently but hard to market to consumers. Heat treated super steel is lighter weight than straight gauge titanium. If you tell an average consumer that a frame is ti (especially 20+ years ago) their eyes will/would light up and they'll get excited. Easy sale. Try explaining the differences between different types of cartridge bearings and you're going to see their eyes glaze over in a minute. It will result in the salesperson/bike shop wasting their time and the customer walking out of their shop to buy a bike at the other store down the street - nearly every time. Good radial contact bearings are good such as dt or bitex. Good angular contact is better. That said how much better and how much more expensive to manufacture and for what extra profit?

Why a bearing might be press fit vs sliding fit, why apparently identical assemblies run at different temperatures, what size race spacers might be and are they worn, when to use wavy springs and shims, circlips.

Quick comment: Around 3:30 in, you mention that wheel bearings in cars, preload doesn't matter as much as there can be some slop. As an engineer for wheel bearings for cars, preload makes a huge difference in lots of the different attributes of the bearing, from drag, life, and seal integrity/sealability. Most passenger vehicles use a double row ACB and are designed in a way to ensure the proper preload. When a bearing goes out of preload, this can lead to vibrations, poor life, and reduced stiffness.

Next bearing change I plan to play with 0.1mm calibrated washers to try and set the contact angle the other way around. I'm a heavy rider so I won't be waiting for long:)

I wouldn't wanna correct an engineer but I think they did it right when the wheels are tighten to the frame . When the end caps pushes in the inner race toward the axle. You would get the back to back loading you want. And there would be no load path to push the bearings out once installed onto the bike with the thru axle tightened. Left outer race lateral outward force would be stopped by the right outter race towards the hub body when axle wanna shift visa versa both side.

This is an awesome demonstration and answered a lot of questions as I was putting new bearings in my dt240 hubs. I do have one question in relation to preload and the length of the axle vs the hub shell. Now I didn't do any extensive measurement so take this with a grain of salt...just my observations. It seems that the front hub on my wheelset is set up similarly to the Winspace wheels you were demonstrating where the hub shell is shorter than the axle. I noticed this due to the fact that when the bearings were fully seated in the shell the bearings were fairly stiff and didn't roll very smoothly. They felt a bit bound or overly preloaded and it made me worry about bearing life. My moderately scientific method to test how freely they would spin was simply to put the valve stem at 90 deg relative to vertical and see if it would fall to the bottom. When the bearings were seated in the hub shell the valve stem would not move and the wheel remained stationary. However when I put the wheel in the fork and loaded up the inner races by tightening the skewer the wheel spun much more freely based upon my method above. The valve stem rotated downward solely based on gravity. So after all that here is my question. Could the reason for the axle being longer than the hub shell be due to a small displacement that occurs in the flanges of the axle when under load from the skewer? If there is enough displacement (or in other words a slight shortening of the axle between the flanges) due to load could it potentially bring the bearing into proper alignment? Anyway...just a question from my observations. Great content and thanks for the video.

Negatory on the GXP crank preload. With the Sram crank, only the NDS bearing supports the crank axially, the DS bearing is there only for radial support. This is achieved by the spindle having a step down from 25 to 24 mm (I think...) in the diameter before going through the NDS bearing where it is then captured by the NDS crank being tightened down on it. This works on threaded BBs, but with PF BBs, the DS cup could get loose. THAT is why the PF GXP interface uses a wavy washer. Sure, it preloads the bearings, but only in the PF varant, not in the threaded variant.
@PeakTorque Жыл бұрын
Yes only the nds takes axial loads on gxp agreed, the other bearing is floating and only does radial loads as you say. However with both PF and Threaded gxp, the wave washer placed on the DS does indeed preload the nds bearing as it pushes the crank assembly away from the bike, 'pulling' on the spindle which is locked to the NDS inner race.

I'm also fairly certain I saw somewhere written that it's there to prevent the PF cup from wiggling out from the frame, like I mentioned.

Would you agree that a easy way to check for back to back tolerance is if the wheel spins freely when the axle/QR is tensioned but then feels a bit draggy if the end caps are held in your hands and the wheel spun?

To improve that moment arm from the wider stance of outer race, you would need to redesign the the hub's preload system to provide preload externally rather than the current internally provided preload. By reducing the length of the axle collars, the bearings would no longer be preloaded? There would then only be two ways to apply that preload, either through the end caps, or via a threaded collar. Since preload provided through the end caps would vary depending upon axle torque, on top of that being too much preload, that would then require a redesign of the preload assembly. Please let me know if I have misunderstood, just trying to learn (Mech ENG student/bike mechanic) :)

Actually to correct myself, I suppose the thru axle would provide the preload, and then the hub axle collars would prevent any excessive preload. Would feel a bit weird off the bike but if it works who cares.

The stiffness of the wheels concerning the bearings is axial stiffness, you wouldnt want to absorb bumps in the road by your wheel going from side to side. And its very hard to engineer vertical compliance and torsional and axial stiffness. Also its debated if vertical compliance in a wheel is actually something you want since your tires can deflect much much more than the wheel itself and do so more efficiently. TL;DR: stiff wheel good. Adjust tire size and pressure to road condition.

I believe you missed the portion where PT discusses the Hollowtech II crank adjustment as a "position preload" system. The downside of position-based preload is you can never really measure how much preload force you actually applied, unlike with a wave washer where you can measure force via its deflection. So Shimano tries to make up for this by providing a torque spec for the preload adjustment bolt - a very low torque, such as 1.5 Nm

@@TypeVertigo Correct. In a shimano BB, Hambini may verify, but i think they actually use proper angular contact bearings which dont mind quite of a lot of axial preload, but yes setting it by hand is rather arbitrary.

Interesting. So when you say “Shimano BB”, would this be a Shimano branded BB or any Shimano type BB? ie: Would say, a Praxis T47 BB also use AC bearings?

@@BikePappy Normal Praxis stuff is not angular contact. If it is they specifically advertise as such, eg "Ceramic Version:Enduro 2437 Angular contact, Grade5 balls, ABEC5 Assembly". Cost is $240 vs 90 for the regular version.

Very well explained and informative. But I still can't get my head around what Campagnolo are doing with their Ultra-Torque bottom bracket. BB-Infinite tried to remedy a problem with the Ultra-Torque by using a retaining compound which I don't agree with. I thought about using shims to create better spacing so the shaft doesn't move but I'm not sure this would be the correct way to address the side to side play. Do I shim to target inner bearing races or the outer. And why is Campy still using that clip on the drive side? I believe that even the bearings aren't that good because they seem to have a fair amount of drag even when I remove the bearing and spin it by hand.

Thanks for this video. Very interesting. I have a set of DT Swiss disc wheels with 240S hubs. The original front hub bearings felt rough off the bike, so I pushed in a new set of NTN/NSK bearings (I forget which) and to my dismay they also felt rough. I started to suspect that the shoulders on the thru axle had been machined too wide for the hub, creating excess axial load. I then found a maintenance guide on the DT Swiss site that advises beginning by pushing the non-drive side bearing fully home against the shoulder, before inserting the axle and then finally pushing the drive side bearing only as far as needed to eliminate bearing play (i.e. NOT fully home against the hub shell shoulder). DT Swiss claims that the bearings will always feel a bit rough when off the bike and will only run smoothly once the wheel is fitted to the bike and the axle compressed by the end caps. Does this smell fishy to you? Obviously, I have no way of testing how smooth/freely the bearings are running once the wheels have been fitted to the bike.

Dare I say it, that's not just fishy, but double bullocks at least: - DT are known to mess up radial tolerances, thus axial fiddling won't help - when the bearings are overly preloaded in the manner the manual advises, extra pressure when the wheel is secured will make things even worse

@@feedbackzaloop Thanks for your thoughts. I considered getting some shims to sit behind the outer bearing races, to pad them out laterally. For now, I have pushed one bearing fully home - the other, I pushed in bit-by-bit, testing the axle for any play and pushing a little bit further until no play remained. The bearings now feel OK outside of the bike. God knows what they are doing when fitted into the bike and the thru axle tightened 🤷♂️

@@trevekneebone369 It certainly does not sound like good practice. The final bearing position should be up against the shoulder, so it sounds like they messed up!

I would agree with the above, this is not good practice. it's basically a bodge to leave one of the bearings in "free air"

@@Hambini Thanks. So what is the fix in my case? Machine off a slither from the axle shoulders? Place a shim between the hub shell shoulder and the bearing outer race? Thanks!
