This Shimano 105 R7000 11 speed compact chainset has been designed and refined to ensure maximum levels of power transfer from rider to the road are maintained. Thanks to modern technology, Shimano has designed this advanced road bike crankset with the perfect gear pitch so it performs exceptionally with standard road frames (130mm rear dropout spacing) and modern disc brake frames, which have a wider 135mm dropout spacing and a wider chainline. This design pushes the advancements in road chainset performance and achieves exceptional levels of efficiency and comfort. The redesigned Shimano 105 FC-R7000 crank balances weight and efficiency without sacrificing stiffness. Its wider gear pitch increases clearance with small gearings on modern disc brake-equipped bike frames. It is offered in 53-39, 52-36, and 50-34T chainring options and 160, 165, 170, 172.5, and 175mm crank arm lengths. Silky Black and Spark Silver colour options are available. Tech Info: On our options, the 165mm, 170mm, 172.5mm and 175mm numbers relate to the chainset's crank arm length in millimetres. Offering the perfect balance between power transfer, efficiency and comfort with the R7000 chainset while keeping it at a price that is ideal for riders on a budget; leaving more cash for mid-ride coffee breaks.
The Claris R2000 also benefits from trickle-down technology from Shimano's top-end models such as the 4-arm crank design. Efficient Power Transfer The 4-arm layout gives this chainset a modern look and increases the rigidity. It's also compatible with Shimano's "Hollowtech II" bottom bracket system, which consists of large external bearings on the bottom bracket and a large spindle attached to one crank arm. This system offers smoother performance and enhanced power transfer when compared to more basic internal bearing systems.
This Shimano Tiagra 10 speed chain is 10 speed compatible and is specifically designed for smooth gear changes as well as powerful acceleration. Offering excellent reliability for your road bike, this model is suitable for use on both Shimano and SRAM 10 speed road drivetrains.

HG HyperGlide Compatible: The distinctively designed HYPERGLIDE sprockets incorporate specially positioned shift ramps and tooth profiles for improved chain control during shifting. Fast and responsive indexed shifting is the result. The HG cassette sprocket, which was developed for the MTB 10-speed system, underwent comprehensive optimisation to achieve super-highly efficient shifting. 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 maximise a rider’s power transfer. The rigidity of the crankset ensures pedalling 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.
This triple crankset features a robust alloy construction, which makes it perfect for stress-free urban commuting from A to B.
