Overview
Is the Enduro 6802 MAX the right pivot bearing for your build?
The Enduro MAX 6802 Sealed Cartridge Bearing is built specifically for the high-load, multi-directional stresses of mountain bike suspension pivots. Enduro pioneered MAX-type bearings for bicycles over twenty years ago, and the design packs the maximum number of balls into the bearing through a custom ground slot in the races, giving it 35 to 40 percent more load capacity than a standard radial bearing. Deeper race grooves add lateral support exactly where pivots need it, and full-contact double-lip LLU labyrinth seals lock out water and grit while holding a 90 percent fill of Almagard extra high pressure grease.
This is the standard ABEC-3 version in the common 15mm x 24mm x 5mm size, built with Grade 10 balls for smooth, consistent rotation under load. It is a true replacement bearing, not a headset-specific or flanged variant, so confirm your pivot uses the 6802 (15x24x5) profile before ordering. Best for riders and mechanics rebuilding full-suspension pivots who want a proven, higher-capacity bearing that outlasts the standard radial bearing it replaces.

FAQ
Good questions
Get to know Enduro

There's more to Enduro than this one product. Our Enduro page has the full Enduro lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Enduro page →What makes a MAX bearing different from a standard bearing?
MAX bearings pack the maximum number of balls into the bearing through a custom ground slot in the races, giving 35 to 40 percent more load capacity than a standard radial bearing, plus deeper race grooves for lateral support. They are built specifically for suspension pivots.
What size is the 6802 bearing?
It measures 15mm inner diameter, 24mm outer diameter, and 5mm thick (the standard 6802 profile). Confirm your pivot uses this size before ordering.
Which version of the 6802 MAX is this?
This is the standard ABEC-3 grease-filled version, not the Black-Oxide (BO), Solid-Lube (BOSL), extended-race (MAX-E), or flanged variant. Match the exact version your pivot calls for.
What grease does it use?
It holds a 90 percent fill of Almagard extra high pressure grease, sealed in by full-contact double-lip LLU labyrinth seals.
