Minimal weight without sacrificing stiffness
TECHNOLOGY
HOLLOWTECH II
BENEFIT
Rider-tuned gear performance through various gear combinations
BENEFIT
Redesigned FC for greater frame compatibility
FEATURE
Wider gear pitch increases clearance between chain and leading teeth, providing compatibility with frames of O.L.D. 135 mm and 410 mm chainstay length
FEATURED TECHNOLOGY
HOLLOWTECH II
Providing the best balance of stiffness, strength, weight and rotating performance
The concept of HOLLOWTECH II technology is focused on producing a superior crankset which will maximize a rider’s power transfer. The rigidity of the crankset ensures pedaling efficiency while its weight a key element of the crankset you want light aids in cycling longer distances over which the rider needs to pedal more. Naturally SHIMANO strove for the optimum balance between the conflicting needs of stiffness while producing a lightweight crank.
HOLLOWTECH technology is an ultra-lightweight hollow crankarm created by SHIMANO with the company’s own proprietary forging technology that also maintains rigidity. The addition of HOLLOWTECH II technology integrates the bottom bracket axle with the right crankarm for more stiffness and a weight savings toa chieve a high-dimensional balance. Its outboard bottom bracket bearing system provides better weight distribution and more pedaling stability allowing for more efficient power transfer.
The HOLLOWTECHII crankset has been developed by pursuing the optimum balance of stiffness &rotating performance in a lightweight and beautiful crankset design.
OTHER TECHNOLOGY
HG-EV
HG-EV cassette is for rider-tuned gear combination & cadence management. We provide optimal 11-speed drivetrain gear ratio; you can choice wider and closer gear combination available to match various riding disciplines. HG-EV cassette is obtained 11-speed gear without compromising the 10-speed durability and improved HYPERGLIDE shifting.
HG-X11 Chain
Silky driving, accurate shifting
HG-X11 directional chain realize more smoother shifts and greater overall performance.
Right and left sides are optimized for front and rear shifting respectively.
HOLLOWTECH Crank Arm
Hollow forged crank arms
A lightweight crankset not only reduces the bike’s weight, but decreases rotating mass to aid in acceleration.
The challenge is to reduce the weight of the crank without reducing its strength and rigidity.
SHIMANO’s advanced forging technology has solved the problem through the HOLLOWTECH crank.
Just like high quality frame tubing, a hollow crank arm can provide amazing strength and rigidity at very lightweight.
HOLLOWGLIDE
Hollow technology on outer chainring
High rigidity hollow structure cuts down on weight yet maintains strength. Better power transfer and quicker and more
