Shimano’s precision tooth profiling and ramp design technology enhance the front shifting experience, allowing for crisp, quiet, and reliable gear changes even under load. This reduces chain drops and wear, extending drivetrain longevity and enhancing overall ride smoothness.

Constructed from durable alloy materials and finished with a sleek, polished surface, the FC-4700 not only performs exceptionally but also adds a refined aesthetic to your bike build. The absence of bottom bracket components in the package allows for customized installation options, so riders can choose a bottom bracket system tailored to their frame specifications and personal preferences.
