Shimano Metrea FC-U5000-1 Crankset w/ Chain Guard

The Metrea FC-U5000-1 crankset by Shimano with chain guard - Cruise elegantly through the city

The Metrea FC-U5000-1 11-speed crankset was specially designed by Shimano for urban cycling. It impresses with a reliable, very quiet shifting and blends wonderfully into the overall appearance of an urban bike thanks to its elegant, uncluttered look. As a crank with only one chainring, it is particularly suitable for flat, predictable terrain and scores points with its straightforward operation. Their 2-piece construction also ensures optimum stiffness and power transfer with the lowest possible weight. Both crank arms and chainring as well as the stylishly integrated chainguard are made of lightweight aluminium.

Technology:

2-Piece Crankset
With the 2-piece designed cranks from Shimano, the right crank arm is precisely matched to the interaction with the bottom bracket. This increases the stiffness and keeps the weight low. Further spaced bearings also improve strength and contribute to more pedalling efficiency. The precision manufacturing of the bearings ensures easy installation and low maintenance. 2-Piece cranks share a 24mm axle diameter with Hollowtech II cranks, so they are also compatible with Hollowtech II bottom brackets.
