Shimano 105 FC-R7000 Crankset – 175mm Silver 50/34t Chainrings

Shimano’s 105 FC-R7000 Crankset delivers elite-level performance for road cyclists prioritizing both efficiency and lightweight design without compromising on power transfer. Engineered with Shimano’s Hollowtech II spindle system, this double-chainring setup combines exceptional stiffness for responsive pedaling with an optimized weight of just 713 grams—ideal for competitive riders or those building high-performance road bikes seeking an edge on climbs and sprints alike.

Key Features & Benefits:
– Precision Engineering: A 50/34T chainring configuration paired with an 11-speed drivetrain ensures seamless gear transitions across varied terrain, while a 110mm BCD maximizes chainring alignment accuracy.
– Enhanced Clearance & Compatibility: Wider gear spacing increases chain stability on smaller cogs, reducing dropouts even on compact frame geometries (chainstays >415mm). This design also accommodates modern disc brake systems via support for 135/142mm road disc hubs—perfect for riders upgrading to flat-mount setups.
– Versatile Build: Silver-anodized finish complements sleek builds, while the 9/16″ spindle interfaces smoothly with standard bottom brackets (sold separately). At 175mm crank length—a common choice for endurance racers—it balances reach and cadence control.

Why Choose This Over Competitors?
Unlike heavier alloy cranksets or less-stiff alternatives, the FC-R7000’s forged aluminum construction strikes an optimal balance between rigidity and weight savings. Its compatibility with shorter chainstays (down to 410mm when paired with small gearings) makes it a standout option for riders on bikes designed for agility over technical courses or tight urban commutes.

Ideal for:
– Racers needing crisp power delivery on criteriums or gran fondos
– Enthusiasts upgrading from mid-tier drivetrains without breaking their budget
– Builders assembling modern road frames with disc brakes and compact geometries

Whether tackling alpine ascents or weekend group rides, this crankset delivers reliable performance that adapts seamlessly to your riding style—without sacrificing speed or precision.
