At Escapa, you’ll find the best Shimano components for your MTB. The Shimano Ultegra FC-R8000 Chainring, with its special tooth profiles, mounting design, and climbing aids, allows for particularly smooth and fast shifting. As a result, shifting under load—which was previously only possible with the rear derailleur—is now easily achievable. Its carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic construction with aluminum teeth helps keep weight low while increasing torsional stiffness. The hollow section of the large chainrings also contributes to this.
NOTE: The letter combinations (MS, MT, MW) following the tooth counts must match for both large and small chainrings. The Ultegra FC-R8000 chainrings have been specially tuned for their climbing aids and can only achieve their superior shifting performance in the combinations provided by Shimano.
