Shimano Crankset

Shimano Australia Cycling (“Shimano”), starts an inspection and replacement program of selected bonded 11‐speed HOLLOWTECH II road cranksets produced between June 1, 2012, up to and including June 30, 2019, for a possible bonding separation issue.

This specifically concerns the Shimano ULTEGRA FC‐6800, DURA‐ACE FC‐9000, ULTEGRA FC‐R8000, DURA‐ACE FC‐R9100 and FC‐R9100‐P 11‐Speed Bonded HOLLOWTECH II Road Cranksets in Australia. Reports received by Shimano indicate that the bonded parts of the crank arm could separate and break, posing potential fall and crash hazards to consumers.

To remedy this situation, Shimano will have any applicable crankset inspected and will replace any crank arm that fails the inspection process.
