Shimano crank recall | Everything we know so far

Sep 28, 2023

Shimano has recalled 2.8 million 11-speed Hollowtech road cranks worldwide following 4,519 incidents of cranksets delaminating in the US and Canada alone. Muddled early communications left riders and bike shops uncertain of exactly what was going on and too many questions remain unanswered by Shimano.


In this episode of the BikeRadar Podcast, senior tech writer Simon von Bromley and deputy editor Jack Luke discuss what happened in the hours after the recall was announced and where Shimano goes from here.


If your crankset has failed or you work in a bike shop participating in the recall programme, contact us at podcast@bikeradar.com – we're keen to hear how the process is working for riders and retailers.

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.
