Shimano 105 FC-R7100 2x12v 50-34T 170mm Cranks

Shimano 105 FC-R7100 Crankset - 2x12 Speed
105 R7100 / R7150 - It's a new day
For the 40th anniversary since its market launch in 1982, the 105 series receives its definitive update with Shimano's Di2 electronic shifting technology. Maintaining the standard price level, the precise shift function, precisely tuned gear ratios and a reliable braking system are made accessible to an even wider circle of road cyclists. Following the tradition of its predecessors, the current 105 is also equipped with cutting-edge technologies - such as the wireless cockpit - and first-class functions. from the cutting-edge Dura Ace and Ultegra series to let your riders discover the road anew, every day.

Shimano 105 FC-R7100 Crankset
The latest 2x12-speed version of the 105 crankset also uses Shimano's proven hollow construction methods to provide not only a visually appealing drivetrain component, but one that's also lightweight and stiff.

While the Hollowtech II technology on the aluminum cranks ensures huge weight savings without compromising stability, the Hollowglide construction takes care of this task on the large chainring, also made of aluminum. Additionally, the plastic ribs on the back of the cymbals represent the unique structural design of the 105 series.

In short, with the FC-R7100-12, road cyclists not only get an extremely light crank, but also a powerful one, whose durable arms ensure efficient power transmission. The crankset is completed by the cleverly designed chainrings, which are perfectly matched to the FD-R7150 front derailleur and guarantee not only fast but also precise shifting.

Hollowtech II

The guiding principle behind Shimano's Hollowtech II technology is the perfect balance of stiffness, stability, weight, and rotational efficiency. The goal was to make a crank that minimized the power required for actuation and allowed more efficient power transmission. An exclusive forging process makes it possible to manufacture extremely light connecting rods that, however, guarantee maximum rigidity. The fixed connection of the right arm to the bottom bracket and its external bearing also serve to achieve an optimal balance between rigidity and low weight.
