Shimano FC-MT520 Crankset - 4x BCD 96 | 1x12-speed

Description

Shimano FC-MT520 Crankset - 4x BCD 96 | 1x12-speed

Designed to be exceptionally durable for extensive Trail and Enduro riding. That is the FC-MT520 crank from Shimano. With its two-piece construction, the durable 4-arm chainring and a robust steel crankshaft, this versatile crankset offers long-lasting durability and stiffness at an attractive price. In addition, the steel chainring uses Dynamic Chain Engagement+ technology to improve drivetrain efficiency and chain guidance on rough terrain.

2-Piece Crankset | The two-piece construction, in which the right-hand crank arm is firmly connected to the shaft of the bottom bracket, serves to optimize the ratio between stiffness and low weight. In combination with the external bearing, which also results in an increased bottom bracket distance, the power transmission is noticeably improved.

Dynamic Chain Engagement+ | The special tooth profile was developed for use in single-chainring configurations in XC, Enduro and Trail Riding. It ensures improved chain guidance, resulting in a smoother pedaling experience, even on uneven terrain. The chain retention provided by each individual tooth reduces wear on the entire profile.
