More informationT47 is a newer bottom bracket shell design, utilizing the oversized interface of the PF30 and EVO386, but with the benefit and peace of mind of a threaded interface. This bottom bracket allows you to install Shimano and other 24mm diameter thru-axle cranks in a T47 shell. It is compatible with 86mm wide frames. There are 2 versions: standard and coated bearings. CeramicSpeed bearings come installed in cups and are connected through the housing. They both have super round ceramic balls and hardened steel races. CeramicSpeed coated bearings have an additional attribute: a 3 micron thick metallic layer on the races. This addition makes racing harder and smoother, reducing drag and increasing life.
