Shimano FC-MT101 Crankset: Precision-Built for Trail Rides and Boost Hub Compatibility

Designed for trail riders seeking reliable performance in rugged terrain, the Shimano FC-MT101 crankset delivers smooth 9-speed shifting and durable construction tailored for mountain biking adventures. Engineered with Hyperdrive technology, this double-chainring system ensures crisp gear transitions even during high-intensity descents or steep climbs, making it ideal for riders tackling technical trails or all-day endurance routes.

Crafted with a robust black finish and square taper spindle (9/16″), this crankset pairs seamlessly with 141/148mm Boost hubs, optimizing chainline alignment for improved stability and power transfer. Its riveted 36-tooth outer and 22-tooth inner chainrings strike a balance between climbing agility and downhill speed, while the 175mm crank arm length suits most riders’ leg proportions for natural pedaling efficiency.

– Trail-Tested Design: Hyperdrive technology minimizes shift lag under load, perfect for unpredictable trail conditions.
– Versatile Setup: Works with standard 9-speed MTB drivetrains, offering a cost-effective upgrade without requiring a full groupset overhaul.
