At CeramicSpeed, they know firsthand that the different riding surfaces and conditions put riders’ equipment under the ultimate stress. That’s why their products are not only built for speed, they’re built to last.

They don’t settle themselves with having already the most valuable pulley wheels on the market, and they are always looking for ways to further develop and perfect the performance of their products. Their new limited edition Cerakote OSPW X systems are the latest example of this approach.

Coating from the aerospace industry

Through an extensive material study of different coatings, they have further enhanced the durability of their OSPW (Oversized Pulley Wheel) by applying a Cerakote coating. Cerakote is a composite coating used in the automotive and aerospace industries that provides optimal durability, hardness, and resistance to scratch and corrosion.

This extra protection, together with the reduced friction characteristic of all CeramicSpeed products, offers the ultimate gains in performance and longevity. Coated bearings are more resistant to lack of lubrication when it comes to wear and damage to the bearing. Nonetheless, this does not mean that the need for maintenance is eliminated.

Developed, designed and hand built in Denmark, The new limited edition Cerakote OSPW X systems come in three off-road tailored matte finishes: bronze, gunmetal, and military olive. They were introduced to the public on July 13th and there are only 100 pieces available of each color, with compatibility for SRAM Eagle AXS & Mechanical derailleurs, and Shimano XT/XTR 12-speed systems. Same as the regular version, these OSPW have a lifetime warranty.

Gravel specific

In order to meet the demands and preferences of gravel riders, they will also add an OSPW for SRAMs gravel-specific XPLR group, which will come in both standard and coated versions and will be available in black, red, gold, and blue from the 28th of July.
