The 3802-2RS-MAX-E (3802-LLU-MAX-E) is a high-load MAX-style cartridge bearing designed specifically for bicycle frame pivots and suspension linkage applications. Featuring an extended inner race, this bearing provides improved alignment and precise spacing in pivot assemblies while delivering increased load capacity compared to standard radial bearings.
The MAX configuration increases the number of balls inside the bearing, making it ideal for low-rotation, high-stress pivot points commonly found on modern full-suspension frames.
Key Features
-
MAX-Style Bearing – Higher ball count for increased radial load capacity
-
Extended Inner Race (E) – 7mm bearing width with inner race extended to 10mm for accurate pivot spacing
-
Double-Sealed (2RS / LLU) – Rubber seals on both sides to protect against water, dirt, and debris
-
Precision Ground Races – Smooth rotation and consistent performance under load
-
Pre-Greased – Factory-lubricated for reduced friction and extended service life
