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 CX50 chainset is the perfect choice for enthusiast riders. Designed for use with 2x10 speed drivetrains, the FC-CX50 provides cyclocross appropriate, 46-36T gearing. Technologies: - Alloy chainrings are both rigid and lightweight. - The chainring teeth have been developed to work in conjunction with the 10-speed directional HG road chains for increased contact to provide greater efficiency and improved power transfer. - Industry-leading cold forged crank arms have been evolved to increase rigidity, reduce weight and improve strength. - 2-piece cap-free design is quick and easy to install whilst being lighter and stiffer than a traditional crank/bottom bracket assembly. - Integrated bottom bracket seal design has a minimal bearing interface ensuring smooth rolling and increased durability.
This crankset features a tough aluminium crank arm material with a steel axle, making it ideal for handling the increased pressure from fitness riding and longer journeys. Its advanced chainrings ensure fast and responsive indexed shifting as you travel from the smooth city pavement to the countryside. One final highlight is this model's 2-piece crank design that offers increased rigidity and less weight.

Increased rigidity with less weight. Wider bearing positioning. Rigidity is enhanced and pedalling force is efficiently transmitted. Precision Bearings. Low maintenance and simplified installation. 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.
The SRAM Red chainset features a completely hollow construction all the way to the spider. Its hidden bolt pattern in the drive side crank arm makes better use of carbon fibre to further improve stiffness and shed weight. Plus, to ensure seamless, flawless performance and Yaw™ front derailleur compatibility, this is paired with X-GlideR™ chainrings. This version of the SRAM Red BB30 chainset uses the BB30 bottom bracket system and with its larger 30mm spindle, it ensures efficient and flex-free power transfer. It's also available with a standard Road 53/39T chainring setup, making it ideal for time trial and racing use, where you need ultimate acceleration to be first over the line. Or, if you're looking more an option to make climbing a little easier for longer rides, there is a semi-compact 52/36T option too. Technologies: Exogram™: The updated Hollow Carbon Construction starts in the crank arm and extends into the cranks' spider. It maximises the stiffness to weight ratio X-GlideR Chainrings: The chainrings are designed for an optimised shifting performance with the Yaw front derailleur. The stiffer rings (5mm 7075-T6 aluminium CNC-machined) feature upshift rivets with an advanced design adopted from SRAM XX. CNC machining allows for precision control of each tooth shape, ramp, and nearly every shifting feature of the chainring. The chainrings, chain, and front derailleur are designed as a single integrated system for optimised performance
Utilising their innovative cold forging process the Apex chainset tips the scales at less than 890 grams.
The SRAM Rival chainset delivers immense performance across a broad variety of bikes and disciplines. Paved or not. Cyclocross (CX) or triathlon. Road racing or unchartered journeys. Rival 22 provides the tools and technology to meet each challenge and for expanding your limits.

The SRAM Rival 1 chainset provides a single-minded proposition to meet your needs and for expanding your limits. The chainring's sharp, narrow tooth profile and rounded chamfer edges help manage a deflected chain and its mud and debris-clearing recesses prevent build-up on the chain's inner chain links and rollers. This hugely versatile component delivers immense performance across a broad variety of bikes and disciplines. Paved or not. Cyclocross (CX) or triathlon. Road racing or unchartered journeys. Technologies: X-Sync™: 1X chainrings provide the highest level of performance and durability. The SRAM X-Sync™ tall square teeth edges engage the chain earlier than traditional triangle shaped teeth. The sharp and narrow tooth profile, as well as rounded chamfer edges, help manage a deflected chain. To provide the best possible performance in muddy conditions, the X-Sync™ chainrings have been designed with mud-clearing recesses for the inner chain links and rollers. Engineered in Germany, X-Sync™ rings are an integral part of the SRAM 1X™ drivetrain.
