Shimano Dura-Ace (137 9001) 1st Gen GB-100 NOS Vintage 1/4" Steel Bottom Bracket Bearings

✓ Original BB bearings - produced in the 1970s
✓ New old stock! Still unused after all these years
✓ Suitable for historic cycling events such as L'Eroica
✓ Worldwide shipping

Shimano Dura-Ace caged bottom bracket bearing set (or ball races if you prefer), hailing from Japan and in production during the 1970s (yet still new & unused after all this time). The perfect finishing touch for your vintage bike, but great for bikes of the non-vintage variety too!

If you're taking part in L'Eroica or any other vintage event, these are fully compliant - so rest assured, the pre-1987 police won't lock you up for having the wrong bearings!

HELP SECTION

Bearing Size - most bottom brackets use 1/4" bearings, but there are some that use smaller sizes so it's advisable to measure your old ones or check with a local bike shop to be sure.

Retainer Type - you can use any type of retaining cage in any bottom bracket as long as the bearing sizes are correct.
