For demanding cyclists, full ceramic dry bearings offer very low friction and are designed to perform in the harshest conditions, without grease. Experience increased smoothness and longevity, making them ideal for intense use in competitive cycling.

If you want the best performance level, full ceramic bearings are the choice you need to experience a smooth drivetrain from installation and over time, without maintenance.

This evolution from CCD to CCD EVO represents much more than a simple update. It is the result of five years of learning and refinement. The CCD EVO takes the qualities that made the original CCD version so successful and transcends them, thus offering superior performance and design.

Driven by the desire to surpass our existing offerings, the first challenge was to reinvent ourselves, while maintaining the Nova Ride heritage and DNA.

To lighten, stiffen, and improve aerodynamics, we undertook a complete redesign of our cage and rollers. This innovative approach, focused on new geometry and optimized thicknesses, results in significantly improved performance and modernity.

No. The first goal in developing CCD cages was to maintain the functional appearance and maintain the original shifting performance.

No, the CCD EVO for Shimano ULTEGRA / DURA-ACE 12S is only compatible with the following derailleur references: Ultegra RD-8150 and Dura Ace RD-9250, 12 speeds.

As a reminder, our warranty program does not cover products used for purposes other than their intended use. We therefore invite you to either look at the CCDs designed for these different derailleurs, or at our derailleur pulley kits with ceramic bearings.

Please refer to our compatibility list.

If you don't know your exact bottom bracket reference, read our compatibility matrix.

Yes, we automatically provide a special mounting key for each purchase of a bottom bracket on our site (first and second generation).

Except for the following references: "BSA for Shimano" and "ITA for Shimano" which require a standard Hollowtech II key.

We also offer for sale a special key that attaches to a torque wrench. Ideal for tightening your new Nova Ride bottom bracket to the recommended torque of 40Nm. See the product.

Our screw-in press-fit bottom bracket solution is designed to provide increased rigidity and correct frame alignment inaccuracies.

The principle is simple: the two cups are pressed into the frame and screwed together with an internal thread, which effectively secures them into a single, rigid unit.

This allows for better load distribution on the bearings, extending their lifespan and optimizing your pedaling experience.

We know that many cyclists wonder about the true effectiveness of our products. That's why we conducted extensive tests in real-life conditions to provide you with clear, comprehensive, and transparent answers. This detailed report also aims to support our product design choices.

Nova Ride products are designed to be the ideal asset for cyclists seeking performance and durability. They reduce the effort required to maintain the same speed, resulting in gains in power and time.

In this report, we highlight the performance of Nova Ride products and calculate the benefits these products provide to demonstrate their effectiveness and lend credibility to their use. The goal of this report is to present results that are understandable (and interesting) for a cyclist. At the same time, we wanted to create a test protocol that was as comprehensive as possible to replicate a real-life bike ride.

Read the full study.

Our goal was not to have a comparable or better result than other brands but above all to prove the effectiveness of our parts, through a field test never carried out before.

Nova Ride components are designed to last. To ensure your bike's best performance, ensure your Nova Ride component(s) are installed correctly. We've prepared detailed instructions, including the required tools. You can choose to follow our installation videos or our step-by-step manuals, available in French and English.

Installation manuals are available on each corresponding product page, at the bottom of the page. We've grouped all manuals on a dedicated page, available here.

You can also consult our assembly videos or fill out our contact form for assistance if needed.

For optimal performance, it is recommended to replace your chain. We strongly recommend adding 2 to 4 additional links.

With oversized pulleys and the need for a longer chain, we recommend starting with a new chain. We do not recommend adding additional links to an existing chain.

You don't need to adjust your chain length when installing Nova Ride derailleur pulleys. They're designed for quick installation and adjustment, allowing you to keep the same number of chain links.

They're a perfect alternative to our CCD cages to upgrade your bike while you're starting out with Nova Ride smoothness.

For optimal performance, we recommend replacing your chain at this time, depending on its level of wear and maintenance.
