Crankset Shimano CUES FC-U6040-1 9/10/11-speed
The Shimano CUES FC-U6040-1 is a robust and efficient 1x 9-, 10- and 11-speed crankset designed for gravel, road and cyclocross riding. Its stiff yet lightweight construction delivers reliable power transfer and outstanding performance on long gravel tours and mixed terrain rides.
Featuring HOLLOWTECH II hollow-forged crank arms, the FC-U6040-1 minimizes weight while maximizing rigidity. The specially shaped chainring teeth enhance chain engagement and, together with DYNAMIC CHAIN ENGAGEMENT+ technology, ensure smooth and secure pedaling even over rough surfaces.
The crankset is exclusively compatible with the LINKGLIDE shifting system, engineered for long-lasting durability and consistent shifting under high load. The single chainring setup simplifies the drivetrain and improves overall reliability for demanding riders.
