Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy VCRC products?
Right here! We sell direct via this website.

traditional sales process.
Who rides your parts?
Our parts are targeted mainly toward racers and fast
riders. Our parts have been raced in all levels of
amateur racing as well as the professional peleton! Our parts have carried riders to National and
World Championships!
Are ceramic bearings really that fast?
Well VCRC ceramic bearings are. Lately there have
been a lot of companies popping up offering ceramic bearings
that are slower than a good steel bearing because they are not
optimized for cycling. Industrial bearings are not a
good choice for cycling.
We started offering ceramic bearings in 2004 long before
the ceramic craze started. It was true back then and it
is true still today, you get what you pay for. Day
after day we get emails and calls from happy customers who are
amazed at the difference their VCRC ceramic bearings made.
