Enduro 6902 LLU MAX Bearing 15x28x7
The Enduro 6902 LLU MAX is a full-complement cartridge bearing designed specifically for high-load bicycle suspension pivots. With a 15 × 28 × 7 mm form factor, it’s widely used in modern trail, enduro, and downhill frame linkage systems where durability under shock loading is critical.
Key Specifications
- Bearing size: 15 × 28 × 7 mm
- Part type: 6902 LLU MAX
- Design: Full-complement (MAX) cartridge bearing
- Seal type: LLU dual-lip seals
What “MAX” Means
MAX bearings are built for maximum load capacity rather than low friction:
- No cage, more balls inside
- Increased contact area for higher strength
- Better resistance to compression under suspension forces
Seal Design (LLU)
- Dual-lip rubber seals
- Tight sealing against mud, dust, and water
- Designed for MTB environments with heavy contamination exposure
Typical Applications
- Suspension linkage pivots
- Rear triangle pivot points
- High-stress frame articulation zones
- Enduro and downhill MTB frames
Performance Characteristics
- Extremely high radial load capacity
- Excellent durability under repeated impacts
- Optimised for long service life in harsh trail conditions
- Slightly higher drag than standard caged bearings, but significantly stronger
Why It’s Used in MTB Frames
Suspension pivots require bearings that can handle:
- Constant micro-movements under load
- Shock impacts from rough terrain
- Contaminated environments (mud, sand, water)
The 6902 LLU MAX is engineered specifically for this, making it a common OEM choice in performance mountain bike suspension systems.
