The VumaQuad Italian BB Ceramic Bearing Cups Pair is a threaded bottom bracket conversion kit designed for 70 mm Italian-threaded frames. The kit comprises a left and right aluminum cup that thread into the frame shell and house high-precision ceramic cartridge bearings, providing ultra-smooth rotation and long-term durability. It’s engineered to fit Zipp VumaQuad and VumaChrono cranksets (BB30 interface) in Italian-threaded shells, allowing riders to use those cranksets on frames without BB30 press-fit shells.
