The Shimano SM-BB93 is a threaded BSA bottom bracket for mountain bikes using HOLLOWTECH II cranks. It fits 68 mm and 73 mm shells, with the required spacer arrangement set according to the shell width.
Its outboard bearing layout gives the crankset broad support outside the frame shell, while the sealed bearing area is designed to maintain smooth rotation and improve durability in regular mountain-bike use. At just 73 g, it is a useful replacement when you want dependable bearing support without adding unnecessary weight.
Real-world feedback is consistently positive about its quiet, smooth operation, straightforward replacement and long service life. One owner reported replacing a previous unit after six years, while others highlighted smooth running and compatibility with 24 mm crank spindles.
A strong choice for mountain-bike riders replacing a worn HOLLOWTECH II bottom bracket on a BSA-threaded 68 or 73 mm frame.

Outboard bearings
The external bearing position provides broad support for the crankset and helps maintain pedalling stability.
Smooth rotation
Built to deliver smooth running through the crankset, with real-world users describing it as quiet and smooth in service.
Improved sealing
Sealing around the bearing area helps protect the unit and support durability during mountain-bike use.
Low weight
At 73 g, it keeps the replacement light while retaining the practical features expected from an XTR bottom bracket.
