Although the crank arms and spider arms are noticeably bigger, which increases stiffness, the overall weight has dropped by 7g over the previous edition of Dura-Ace. Shimano has adapted the crankset to work with disc brake road bikes that generally have 135mm rear hub spacing and shorter chainstays without the need to increase Q-factor thanks to its wider chainring spacing. The Double version offered here comes in numerous gear combinations to best suit each individual riders needs. Please note: Bottom bracket is NOT included
Key Features:The Di2 front derailleur's operation is pioneering, smooth shifting is guaranteed thanks to wireless communication with the gear levers. What's more, shifting the rear derailleur automatically trims the front derailleur,Full and semi synchronized shifting programable, Synchro shift compatible meaning a single shifter can control both front and rear shifting which can be fully custom tuned to your riding preferences. Semi synchronized shifting means when a front shift is made the rear mech will automatically correct to the appropriate ratio,The removal of traditional mechanical cables in favour of electrical wires not only eliminates poor shifting caused by contaminates, corrosion and stretching, but provides effortless gear shifts,The front derailleur also trims automatically; the cage moves in response to the position of the rear derailleur on the cassette to ensure no chain rub and a quiet unobtrusive ride, enabling you to concentrate on the road ahead,Designed to work with the wider gear pitch spacing Shimano chainsets without sacrificing shifting performance on bikes with 135 / 142 mm O.L.D.,Braze-on fit as standard; if your bike does not have a braze-on mount seat tube adapters are available,12-speed E-tube SD300 wire compatible.

SRAM Force 22 GXP 11sp Road Double ChainsetDelivering exceptional performance, the SRAM Force 22 features a unidirectional carbon crank arm and forged alloy spider. The durable X Glide R™ chainrings are designed for use with YAW™ Technology in the front derailleur for high-quality performance.Like SRAM RED, the hidden bolt pattern makes better use of carbon fibre to further improve stiffness and shed weight.Features:Hidden bolt pattern leverages the characteristics of carbon fibre while presenting a sleek appearanceStiffer X-GlideR chainrings feature thicker construction, advanced shift timing pins and ramps, which are optimised for shifting with the Yaw™ front derailleurArm Material: Carbon, Machined alloy spiderCrank Arm Length: 165mm, 170mm, 172.5mm, 175mmChainrings Included: YesChainring Bolt Circle Diameter (BCD): 110 BCD, 130 BCDChainring Material: Machined alloyChainring Size: 46/36T, 50/34T, 52/36T, 53/39TCompatibility: 11-SpeedBolts: Alloy Double HexBottom Bracket: GXPSpeed: 11 SpeedWeight: 715g Part No: FC-FRC-2X11-A1Technologies:X-Glide: Imagine being able to shift smoothly at any time, no matter what. We’re talking full-power shifts. Up, down, whatever the trail demands. The benefit of the X-Glide drivetrain is simple, yet, when you think about it, incredibly impactful to the way you ride. Flawless shifting means you’ll never again compromise your speed and power in unpredictable off-road terrain. Here’s how we did it: TRUVATIV’s crank engineers threw away the old standards and developed a new chainring geometry from the ground up. They precisely paired the different-sized chainrings and redesigned where and how the chain engages with the rings. By aligning the chainring pick-up rivets to the chain pivot pin—rather than the middle of the chain link—you get double the shift opportunities. No more missed shifts, ever. X-Glide puts you in the right gear, right now.Buy SRAM Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
The stunning X Glide R™ chainrings are optimized for use with the YAW™ Technology in the front derailleur, delivering seamless, flawless performance. X-GlideR Chainrings The chainrings are designed for an optimized shifting performance with the Yaw front derailleur. The stiffer rings (5mm 7075-T6 aluminum 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. Chainrings, chain, and front derailleur are designed as a single integrated system for optimized performance.
Ultegra's new FC-R8100 crank maintains the same quick, precise front shifting and efficient power transfer that Shimano riders have grown accustomed to, but with even more crank arm length options.
