The Silent Solution to Bottom Bracket Noise — TOKEN Ninja
Share
Every cyclist knows that a bottom bracket can make or break the riding experience.
One of the most frustrating issues riders face is bottom bracket creaking — that annoying sound that ruins an otherwise perfect ride. It’s often caused by frame tolerance inconsistencies, bearing wear, or poor sealing, and while many solutions claim to fix it, few actually do.
That’s why TOKEN developed the Ninja Series bottom brackets — a line of precision-engineered upgrades designed to eliminate noise, extend durability, and improve pedaling efficiency. Trusted by pro riders and top bike brands, the Ninja Series represents one of the most effective and reliable solutions for solving bottom bracket creaking once and for all.
1. Thread-Together Technology: Eliminating Noise & Extending Bearing Life
Most press-fit bottom brackets creak because of small gaps or alignment issues between the frame and cups. These tolerances allow micro-movements that create friction and noise.
On top of that, press-fit systems concentrate pressure directly on the bearing cups, which leads to premature wear and additional friction.
The TOKEN Ninja Series uses a unique Thread-Together design that completely changes how the system handles stress.
Instead of the force being absorbed by the bearing cups, the pressure is distributed evenly through a central threaded sleeve that locks both sides together.
This simple but brilliant solution:
- Eliminates creaking by stabilizing the entire BB assembly
- Reduces strain on bearings, extending their life
- Delivers smoother pedaling with consistent efficiency
No noise. No movement. Just clean, silent power transfer.
2. Fusion Composite Structure: Strength Meets Precision
The Ninja Series also benefits from TOKEN’s Fusion technology, which blends CNC-machined aluminum cups with composite sleeves.
This hybrid structure ensures a precise fit and consistent alignment between the frame and the bearings.
Fusion advantages:
- Prevents bearing movement inside the frame
- Improves frame stiffness and pedaling response
- Extends the overall lifespan of the bottom bracket
By combining lightweight materials with superior machining, TOKEN guarantees smoother rotation and greater longevity — even under heavy pedaling loads.

3. High-Performance Bearings: Premium & TBT Ceramic Options
Because every cyclist rides differently, TOKEN offers two high-performance bearing options designed to meet specific needs:
Premium Bearings — Reliable for All Conditions
Made from high carbon steel and produced to tighter tolerances, Premium Bearings run smoother and last longer than standard steel bearings.
They are designed for riders who train or commute regularly and need long-lasting, all-weather durability.
TBT Ceramic Bearings — Race-Level Efficiency
For those chasing every watt of performance, TBT Bearings deliver exceptional smoothness and minimal rolling resistance.
They feature ultra-round ceramic balls and titanium nitride-coated steel races to prevent wear and corrosion.
Compared to typical ceramic systems, TBT bearings are lighter, more durable, and stay smoother for longer — ideal for racing and high-performance use.
4. X-Seal Technology: Protection Without Friction
One of the most common causes of bearing failure is contamination from dirt and water.
Many brands try to solve this with thick seals, but that only increases friction and robs you of precious pedaling efficiency.
TOKEN’s patented X-Seal technology offers the perfect balance — maximum protection with minimal drag.The system uses dual rubber rings housed in a CNC-machined alloy cover, ensuring precise sealing while maintaining a free-spinning feel.
X-Seal benefits:
- Blocks out water, dust, and grit
- Keeps bearings spinning freely with almost no added resistance
- Extends bearing life, even in tough riding conditions
With X-Seal, your bottom bracket stays cleaner, runs smoother, and lasts longer — all without wasting your energy.
5. The Most Complete Compatibility in the Market
As a true bottom bracket specialist, TOKEN has built one of the most comprehensive product ranges in cycling.
