Description
The SHIMANO STEPS E-MTB FC-M8150 crankset in 165 mm length is designed to equip an electric mountain bike (VTTAE) with a transmission solution adapted to the specific constraints of electric assistance. It is designed to fit neatly onto an e-MTB, while providing a solid base for pedaling over rough terrain thanks to a short crank length, often sought after to limit contact with the ground on technical trails.
User benefits
With its 165 mm cranks, this e-MTB crankset provides better ground clearance and reduces the risk of hitting obstacles (stones, roots) when pedaling off-road. It's also a good choice for riders looking for a cadence that's easier to maintain on a VTTAE, while retaining a precise, stable pedaling feel.
