Overview
Crankset Shimano NEXUS FC-C6000 Black
Shimano NEXUS FC-C6000 is a durable and reliable crankset designed for city and comfort bicycles. Developed primarily for bicycles equipped with Shimano NEXUS 8-speed internal gear hubs, it delivers efficient power transfer and a smooth, consistent pedalling rhythm for everyday riding.
The crankset features 170 mm aluminium crank arms and a durable steel chainring, combining low weight with long-lasting performance. Its traditional square taper interface ensures compatibility with suitable bottom brackets, while the 44 mm chainline provides proper chain alignment. The chainring is riveted to the crankset and is therefore not designed for conventional separate replacement.
Shimano NEXUS FC-C6000 is compatible with both the 8-speed HG chain CN-HG71 and the single-speed chain CN-NX10. Although it does not include a chain guard ring, the crankset is compatible with a full chain case, making it a practical choice for everyday urban cycling where reliability and low maintenance are essential.
