A double-row, angular-contact ball bearing unit includes double sided cage, a plurality of balls maintained in first and second circular arrays by the cage and disposed between a one piece outer ring having two races and an inner ring formed of two side by side sections, each having an individual race. Angled deflectible locking fingers extend inwardly from the cage into a locking groove in the inner ring section for the first array at a location between the arrays of balls, and this section extends sideways into the region of the second array. The outer ring is undercut from the outer race having the second array to the side of the outer ring that is remote from the first array. The cage side for the first array is of the comb-type and the cage side for the second array is of the window-type.
