Shimano XT is a high-performing mountain bike groupset that comes in at a more accessible price than XTR. The crankarms are aluminum forged with Hollowtech II technology which balances low weight, stiffness, and comfort. It also utilizes a narrow 172mm Q-Factor which provides a compact fit for excellent pedaling efficiency and quick power transfer. Still, comfort is maintained through the entire system. This creates the proper stiffness to charge into technical trails without worrying about too much flex under pressure. This version of the XT Crankset is made for the 2x12-speed setup. This crank is a great choice for anyone who wants performance pedaling at a reasonable price.
