The Claris R2000 also benefits from trickle-down technology from Shimano's top-end models such as the 4-arm crank design.

Efficient Power Transfer

The 4-arm layout gives this chainset a modern look and increases the rigidity. It's also compatible with Shimano's "Hollowtech II" bottom bracket system, which consists of large external bearings on the bottom bracket and a large spindle attached to one crank arm. This system offers smoother performance and enhanced power transfer when compared to more basic internal bearing systems.

Shimano FC-R2000 Claris Compact Chainset is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 3.
Rated 5 out of 5 by MrRediculous from Quietly brilliant Got these to replace a worn Shimano Octalink crankset and wanted a more modern looking one with a shadow BB. Got to say that for the money these are absolutely superb. They look incredible and they work so well I’m hard pressed to tell the difference between these and 105’s/Ultegras I have used on other bikes. Obviously they wont be as light weight as the higher end ones but for the money they are a great choice.

Asked by: MatthieuBehroozi
It's the same version just listed different, FC stands for front chainset. The difference in our two listings is the length of the crank arm, 170mm and 175mm.

Campag 10 speed compatibility

Will a campagnolo 10 speed chain and rear derailleur work with this chainset?
Asked by: philthelancealot
Sadly no, these are designed to use with 8-speed Shimano only.

What bottom bracket do I need?

Hi guys, What bottom bracket do I need to go with this? I have a 2015 Carrera Virtuoso which has a pro wheel chain set and as far as I can make out a sealed square taper bottom bracket. The test of the drive train is Claris. Sorry but not at all technically minded. Thanks
Asked by: ChrisLancs
This chainset is for a Hollowtech II Bottom bracket. The following would allow fitment to your bike.

Can I replace my existing Shimano 2300 chainset with the FC-R2000 Claris?

My Raleigh Airlite 100 has Shimano 2300 derailleurs and shifters, HG50 8 speed cassette with an FSA Tempo 50/34 crank. Would it be possible to install the R2000 Claris compact chainset as a direct replacement to the existing Tempo provided that the relevant Hollowtech BB was used?
Asked by: LuckyLew56
You will be able to replace your old Claris chainset with this newer version with the appropriate BB https://www.wiggle.co.uk/shimano-tiagra-bb-rs500-bottom-bracket-cups/
