Designed for demanding E-MTB use, the 170 mm SHIMANO FC-E8000 crank series is a key component of your electric bike's drivetrain. Their aim is to deliver efficient pedaling and excellent effort control, for smooth motricity and smoother riding on off-road courses. Supplied without chainrings, this electric MTB crank is ideal if you only wish to replace the crank set, or adapt your assembly to your existing configuration.
Whether for maintenance or upgrading, replacing a worn-out SHIMANO crankset helps to restore a more stable pedaling feel, improved pedaling efficiency and smoother transmission, especially when the electric bike is subjected to high stresses on climbing, boosting and crossing. This FC-E8000 model is aimed at cyclists looking for a reliable replacement part for their E-MTB assembly, while retaining the freedom to select the chainring separately.

Presentation
The 170 mm SHIMANO FC-E8000 crankset series is designed for electrically assisted mountain bike (E-MTB) drivetrains. Supplied without a chainring, they allow you to replace a worn or damaged crankset and start again from a sound base on the crank side, a key point for maintaining a smooth transmission and regular pedaling on an electric bike.
Benefits for the user
These SHIMANO E-MTB cranks provide a reliable crankset replacement, with a length of 170 mm suitable for a wide range of mountain bike set-ups. The fact that they are supplied without a chainring makes it easy to upgrade a bike by keeping the chainring already in place (if compatible with your set-up) or by choosing a chainring adapted to your configuration, without paying for an unnecessary part.

Expert advice
Check the length of cranks currently fitted (170 mm) to maintain your pedaling position and avoid any change in comfort or ground clearance. Check the condition of the pedals and threads before reassembly, and observe the tightening torque recommended by the manufacturer during installation. After the first few rides, check the tightness of the crankset assembly to make sure it's secure, especially on a high-stress electric mountain bike.
