The present invention relates to a support bearing for a constant velocity joint in which: a ball rotation surface of a bearing is formed on a shaft section of an outer ring of an inboard-side constant velocity joint; a support bearing outer ring is disposed to face the ball rotation surface; and balls as a plurality of rolling elements which are held by a retainer are disposed between the ball rotation surface and the rotation surface of the support bearing outer ring. With this arrangement, the present invention makes it possible to decrease size and weight.
