CERAMICSPEED - OSPW DERAILLEUR CAGES - SHIMANO 9100 / R8000

As the fastest oversized pulley wheel system on the market, the CeramicSpeed Oversized Pulley Wheel System (OSPW System) has been developed to answer the increasing demand for improved drivetrain performance. The OSPW System optimises the overall efficiency of your drivetrain thanks to the extremely low friction of the CeramicSpeed Bearings and the unique design of the overall system.

CeramicSpeed OSPW Systems will make you save watts and improve your performance in both indoor and outdoor training and racing. Upgrade your hometrainer with the watt-saving OSPW Systems and feel the difference immediately. Ride faster with CeramicSpeed in Zwift and other indoor training apps.

The CeramicSpeed Oversized Pulley Wheels System has been proven to be the fastest pulley system in the world, providing energy savings starting from 2.4 watts over standard Shimano systems. This is an updated version of the Oversized Pulley Wheel System for Shimano 9100/9150 and 8000 SS/8050 SS. This new design has an integrated stop tower for easier mounting.

The oversized pulley wheels have 3-5 times the lifespan of commonly used standard pulleys on the market. Featuring a 13-tooth upper pulley wheel and a 19-tooth lower pulley wheel to provide absolute optimisation of the rear derailleur, the upper and lower oversized aluminium pulley wheels come fitted with CeramicSpeed Bearings with standard or coated races.

The Shimano 9100/8000 OSPW system is compatible up to a 32 tooth cassette for both Dura Ace & Ultegra derailluers

Please note: The OSPW System for 9100/9150 and 8000 SS/8050 SS is NOT compatible with Ultegra 8000-GS or 8050-GS (medium cage) derailleurs, nor with the clutch equipped Ultegra RD RX800 & RX805. Please see our OSPW X for Shimano RX800/805 for a compatible RX800 & RX805 version. For a compatible upgrade for Ultegra 8000-GS or 8050-GS please see our Pulley Wheels for Shimano, 11s NW.

Please note: While there are design similarities this OSPW is not compatible with the 12-speed Shimano 9200 or 8100 series derailleurs.

 The Coated Advantage

The coating is a metallic layer, which is 75% harder than the hardened steel races. The coating is applied in a very thin and even layer of 3 microns (0,003 mm) on the entire surface of the bearing race. Both the inside and the outside are treated to achieve optimal results.

Within our comprehensive R&D program, the special coating has been developed in cooperation with a European coating specialist. Applied to the bearing’s steel races, through an advanced process that ensures an even, smooth and homogeneous surface, the coating formula improves even further the high quality of CeramicSpeed Bearings.

Thanks to the coating’s high resistance to corrosion – even if the bearing is contaminated with degreaser, water or mud, the risk of bearing failure due to corrosion is negligible. We recommend choosing CeramicSpeed Coated Bearings for unmatched longevity and incredibly low friction.
