The CeramicSpeed Oversized Pulley Wheel System is the only 17-tooth pulley wheel system, completely designed and developed by CeramicSpeed, in Denmark. Matching lightweight materials, the lowest friction bearings and the longest lifetime with consistent road and lab testing, the CeramicSpeed OSPW System delivers unique energy savings and reduces the friction in the derailleur by 40-60 %. At this year’s edition of EUROBIKE, CeramicSpeed launches the first OSPW System for SRAM groupsets.
New compatibility – SRAM groupsets
The newest addition to the product collection, the CeramicSpeed OSPW System for SRAM is designed to be compatible with SRAM Red, Force and Rival derailleur groupsets. The SRAM version fits up to 32-tooth size cassettes. The newly released system comes in two options, one compatible with SRAM eTap, and another one compatible with SRAM mechanical groupsets, 10-speed and 11-speed setups. The OSPW System for SRAM is planned to be available for purchase from the CeramicSpeed retailers worldwide from mid-October. Just as the OSPW System for Shimano, the SRAM version is available with both coated and standard CeramicSpeed Bearings.
Technology for long-lasting performance
The OSPW System enhances the efficiency in the drivetrain by removing the sharp chain articulation found in standard 11-tooth systems. The CeramicSpeed 17-tooth OSPW System increases the power savings starting at 1.6 watts for the SRAM versions and 2.4 watts for the Shimano version. This unique innovative system delivers optimal gains, unrivalled frictional reduction and a lifetime warranty of up to 6 years.
Asked about the development of the new system, CeramicSpeed Managing Director Martin Banke says “A year ago we released on the market the most efficient oversized pulley wheel system. It was just a matter of time until more and more riders would try out and get to understand the real advantages of the OSPW Systems. And when that happened, we’ve watched the OSPW System make the first appearance at Tour de France. After months of research and testing, at the request of athletes worldwide, we are now able to help riders boost their performance, with both Shimano and SRAM groupsets, letting them enjoy the benefits of this technologic advance.”
very tempting lifetime warranty; if I was a Muskrat.
" lifetime warranty of up to 6 years."
