GPX DEMON motorcycle users will see a night and day difference in performance and longevity by using spx tapered bearings instead of ball racers.
1. Load Capacity: Tapered bearings are designed to handle both radial (lateral) and axial (thrust) loads, making them ideal for heavy bike steering heads where forces are applied in multiple directions. In contrast, ball racers are designed primarily for radial loads.
2. Stability and Control: Tapered bearings provide more precise steering and stability, especially during hard braking, high-speed potholes and cornering where axial forces are significant.
3. Longevity: Tapered bearings distribute the load over a larger surface area, resulting in less wear, 3 times longer life and almost zero maintenance compared to ball bearings.
4. Free-play and handling: Tapered steering bearings balance free play and traction, lightening the front-end and giving extra hand comfort for handling in heavy traffic.
