SHIMANO STEPS FC-EN500 crank set: designed for electric mobility, this pair of black 175 mm cranks provides stable, efficient effort transmission, ideal for an electric-assist bike used on a daily basis. Designed for the SHIMANO STEPS ecosystem, they contribute to a smooth pedaling feel and good control of power, whether on urban rides or longer outings.
This crank set is designed for replacement or maintenance of your crankset: a reliable solution for getting a clean drivetrain, limiting parasitic play and keeping your motorization and chain running smoothly. The black finish blends in easily with most e-bike-oriented assemblies.
To choose the right part and avoid any assembly incompatibility, we recommend checking the measurements and standard of your current crankset (crank length, mounting interface, transmission configuration). Scroll down the page to see detailed technical specifications at the bottom ↓

Product presentation
The SHIMANO STEPS FC-EN500 crank series in black finish is a crankset designed for electric-assist bicycles equipped with the SHIMANO STEPS system. With a crank length of 175 mm, it aims to offer a pedaling interface adapted to the specific demands of an EAB, while retaining a single-plate drivetrain (SS) oriented assembly according to the bike's configuration.
User benefits
This SHIMANO STEPS crankset can be used to replace a worn crank or to upgrade the transmission on the pedaling side, to restore smooth pedaling and a homogeneous riding feel. The 175 mm length corresponds to a common standard, appreciated for maintaining a good pedaling lever arm on many electric bikes, especially in everyday use.

Expert advice
Before ordering, check the crank length actually fitted (175 mm) to ensure identical ergonomics and avoid any change in pedaling position. During assembly, check for play at the crankset interface and the condition of the pedals (threads); a new crankset deserves pedals in good condition to preserve the threads and ensure correct tightening. In the workshop, we recommend tightening to the torque recommended by SHIMANO, and checking after a few rides, particularly on VAEs where torque constraints are higher.
