The Ninja bottom bracket doesn't just solve the problem of noisy bottom brackets; it actually improves the life of the bottom bracket and makes your bike stiffer. So many innovations make this Ninja BB unlike any other bottom bracket. Token's NINJA bottom bracket solves creaking issues, improves bearing life, and adds stiffness to the bottom bracket.
The bottom bracket features Fusion technology, which is a combination of plastic and fibre that cover an alloy bottom bracket shell. The composite material allows it to be precisely machined and fit snugly in the frame so it doesn't move. Since plastic and fibre do not adequately support bearings, which can wear prematurely if poorly supported, Token houses the bearings in an alloy shell and wraps them with plastic and fibre.
This fusion of the three materials provides the bearings a solid platform to sit on and extends their lives. Token went even further by extending the alloy shell so the right and left sides lock together. This locks the frame, cranks, and bottom bracket together and provides unparalleled stiffness. The cups are engineered to be light, creak-proof, and more tolerant to BB-shell dimension variation.
The Ninja bottom bracket can be purchased individually or in a package that includes adapters to fit several different frame and crankset combinations. There aren’t many times a replacement part actually improves your bike, but the Ninja BB is designed to do just that.
Technology and Design:
- Fusion: Fusion technology marries aluminium and nylon to give a high-performance and squeak-free bottom bracket.
- X-Seal: Token’s X-Seal technology keeps bearings protected from dirt and water, with very little friction for a free-spinning bearing.
- Double Thread: Provides faster installation and less axial force.

Installation Guidance:
It is always important to read the user’s guide before installation and use. Follow all instructions carefully. If you have any questions, do not ride the bike. Take it to your local Token dealer for assistance.
