The HollowTech II 11-speed Ultegra chainset offers an ideal balance of light weight and stiffness, making it the perfect choice for both enthusiast and competitive riders. Crank Construction: Hollowtech II. Cassette and Chain Compatibility: R8000. Hyperdrive. HollowGlide hollow outer chainring gives vast improvements in rigidity by virtually removing outer chainring flex and hugely improves shift performance, even under high load. The chainring teeth have been developed to work in conjunction with 11-speed HG-EV chains for increased contact to provide greater efficiency and improved power transfer. Industry leading HollowTech II cold forged 4 arm hollow cranks have been evolved for maximum rigidity while reducing weight. A wide range of chainring options and crank arm lengths are available to meet the needs of all riders and racing disciplines. HollowTech II integrated bottom bracket uses a wider bearing placement and larger axle diameter for increased stiffness and efficiency. HollowTech II integrated bottom bracket seal design has minimal bearing interface ensuring smooth rolling and increased durability. 

KEY FEATURES:

  • Optimized lightweight crank arm design produces excellent power transfer efficiency
  • Minimized weight without sacrificing stiffness
  • HOLLOWTECH II
  • Rider tuned gear performance through various gear combinations
  • Possible to choose the best choice for ride
  • Redesigned FC for greater frame compatibility
  • Wider gear pitch increases clearance between chain and leading teeth to provide compatibility with frames with O.L.D. 135mm and 410mm chain stay length

Note: Crankset install tool is not included.

Your crankset must fit onto your bottom bracket! There are currently four crankset / bottom bracket interfaces that you're likely to come across. If your bottom bracket is made by Shimano and it has splines, then you need an Octalink crankset. If your bottom bracket is NOT made by Shimano and it has splines, it's almost certainly ISIS. There are a very few non-Shimano chainsets with Shimano Octalink interfaces so, to be sure, count the splines - ISIS has 9, Octalink has (surprise, surprise) 8. No matter which brand of b/b you have, if it has a square interface, it will require a traditional square taper chainset. If you have one of the new Hollowtech II systems, you will need to choose the exact chainset that matches your bottom bracket. Most MTB chainsets are now 9-speed compatible but these will work with an 8-speed system.
