With stunning acceleration, the new Dura-Ace R9270 C36 wheelset will change the way you experience climbs, corners, even stoplights. This is because it isn't just how much a wheel weighs but where the weight is on the wheel that matters. The all-new C36 design shaves mass at every opportunity but especially at the rim. The result is a lively wheelset that can transform your ride. Lighter, Wider and Faster Carbon Road Race Wheel With both a lighter, wider all-carbon rim and a lighter hub, the new Dura-Ace C36 won't shy away from a day of climbing. The new rim is 36 mm deep and still delivers good aerodynamic efficiency despite its gossamer weight. Meanwhile, the hub features an alloy freehub body and a new engagement mechanism for increased rigidity. Centre-Lock Disc Rotor Mount The Centre Lock system makes an easy rotor installation possible with a spline mount and a lock ring. The lock ring mounting system reduces the total working hours by shortening the amount of time of both installation and de-installation. In addition, the secure fixing by the spline mount enhances precision and rigidity while improving braking efficiency. D2 Aerodynamic Rim Profile Aerodynamic performance is affected by wind direction. To create the D2 rim, Shimano engineers considered both frontal and crosswinds, aiming to achieve optimal performance in real-world riding conditions. Extensive prototype testing, in the wind tunnel and on the road, proved that a wide rim shape with a deep tire bed performs best across a wide range of conditions. At yaw angles ranging from 0 to 15 degrees, the Shimano D2 rim profile reduces air drag better than others aero shape rims. This rim design also boosts lateral wheel stiffness and offers improved vertical compliance for increased control, comfort and durability on the road. Rear Wheel OPTBAL Spoke System The OPTBAL rear wheel spoke system features 21 spokes—14 on the drive side and 7 on the non-drive side. Cassette spacing in today’s wheels produces unbalanced tension in traditional 1:1 spoke systems. This unbalance is intensified with the 11-speed cassette, producing nearly double the tension on the drive side spokes. Generally, high and low tension spokes have respectively tendency toward breaking down and coming loose spoke nipples. Unbalanced tension affects durability and strength. The OPTBAL design rebalances spoke tension, enhancing wheel rigidity and strength for a more durable wheel. Shimano E-Thru Axle System The tool-less type thru-axle skewer system optimizes rigidity and weight balance and enables easy operation with a reliable internal cam mechanism. The 15 mm thru-axle system is 15% stiffer torsionally and 25% stiffer in transverse shear than a traditional 9 mm quick release front axle system. High rigidity is secured while keeping the optimum weight balance. The E-Thru axle hub system minimizes the distortion of suspension while maintaining lightweight for riding around sharp corners at high speed.
The Dura-Ace FC-R9200 chainset is the driving force at the heart of the bicycle. This chainset ensures that no portion of your pedal stroke is wasted. With hollow arms and chainrings, weight is kept to a minimum but stiffness and shifting precision is maximized. Hollowtech II Technology for World-Class Strength at a Low Weight The Dura-Ace FC-R9200 crank performs two vital functions: transferring your pedalling effort into the drivetrain and ensuring the fastest, most precise front shifting available. With Hollowtech II crank arms to ensure lightweight and Shimano's class-leading chainring designs, the FC-R9200 won't let you down. And the FC-R9200 12 Speed Chainset is offered in even shorter crank arm lengths to ensure there are options to fit any rider. Hollowglide Chainring Technology Hollow technology on the outer chainring. The Hollowglide construction ensures high rigidity while its hollow structure cuts down on weight yet maintains strength. This provides better power transfer and quicker and more precise front shifting performance. Hollowtech II 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. The Best Balance of Stiffness, Strength and Weight The concept of Hollowtech II technology is focused on producing a superior crankset that will maximize a rider’s power transfer. The rigidity of the crankset ensures pedalling efficiency while its low weight, a key element of the crankset, 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. The addition of Hollowtech II technology integrates the bottom bracket axle with the right crankarm for more stiffness and weight savings to achieve a high-dimensional balance. Its outboard bottom bracket bearing system provides better weight distribution and more pedalling stability, allowing for more efficient power transfer. The Shimano Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed Chainset has been developed by pursuing the optimum balance of stiffness & rotating performance in a lightweight and beautiful crankset design.

Shimano Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed ChainsetThe Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed Chainset from Shimano provides the optimum balance of strength and rigidity at a low weight. Shimano's Hollowtech II and Hollowglide technologies provide outstanding power transfer and smooth gear shifts while it's engineered to excel specifically with the Shimano 12-Speed road groupset systems.The Dura-Ace FC-R9200 chainset is the driving force at the heart of the bicycle. This chainset ensures that no portion of your pedal stroke is wasted. With hollow arms and chainrings, weight is kept to a minimum but stiffness and shifting precision is maximized.Hollowtech II Technology for World-Class Strength at a Low WeightThe Dura-Ace FC-R9200 crank performs two vital functions: transferring your pedalling effort into the drivetrain and ensuring the fastest, most precise front shifting available. With Hollowtech II crank arms to ensure lightweight and Shimano's class-leading chainring designs, the FC-R9200 won't let you down. And the FC-R9200 12 Speed Chainset is offered in even shorter crank arm lengths to ensure there are options to fit any rider.Hollowglide Chainring TechnologyHollow technology on the outer chainring. The Hollowglide construction ensures high rigidity while its hollow structure cuts down on weight yet maintains strength. This provides better power transfer and quicker and more precise front shifting performance.Hollowtech II Forged Crank ArmsA 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.The Best Balance of Stiffness, Strength and WeightThe concept of Hollowtech II technology is focused on producing a superior crankset that will maximize a rider's power transfer.
