Description
Stage6 Small End Bearing HQ silver 12-to-10mm Adapter 10x17x13mm, Minarelli.
We had this reducer bearing manufactured specifically for us; it allows for using crankshafts with conrods for 12mm piston pins on cylinders with 10mm piston pins. This way you can switch between high-end, sport and original cylinders without having to replace the crankshaft.
We recommend to replace the small end bearing whenever installing a new cylinder or crankshaft.
In addition to the common sizes, we also carry an extra-wide 10mm bearing. With some cylinder kits, the bearing has too much play and may wear unevenly. Also available - 13mm and 14mm bearings for all Stage6 R/T and Malossi BigBore kits.
What is a Small end bearing?
The small end bearing or piston pin bearing is a needle bearing; the rolling elements used are cylindrically shaped needle rollers. It works similarly to all bearings, reducing friction and increasing the life of the crankshaft and the cylinder.
The small end bearing takes in the piston pin and reduces friction between the piston pin and connecting rod by distributing the load over a larger area.
The small end bearing plays a vital role in the reliability and longevity of the engine, so it is important to replace and lubricate it well each time you reassemble the engine.
Tuning Level: Racing
We categorize our products into different performance levels Original, Sport, Racing and High End , so that our customers can choose the right parts for their setup. It is really important to combine parts that belong to the same tuning level, this is especially true for cylinders, crankshafts and exhausts.
Racing products are designed for a more extreme uses and are developed primarily for racing. Whether you stay at 50cc or increase the displacement, the corresponding Racing parts produce much higher performance than the original parts in order to achieve maximum power.
