I went to Shinjuku Gyoen to see the cherry blossoms.
The cherry blossoms in full bloom were a masterpiece, but due to the influence of the corona, the closing time was closed at 16:30.
"It's a garden of the imperial family, and even if you stay a little longer, you'll miss it with a generous spirit."

Apparently, I was kicked out normally. This is Miya.

Well today.

A fairly core crank part is available on USED.

SHIMANO DURA-ACE Track "FC-7710".

This SHIMANO, SUGINO in Japan, Campagnolo for overseas items ...
Because the products of these manufacturers are particularly simple, there are many solidly healthy items.
After using it a little, the expression is richer.
After the pasted pust, it seems that the presence of a substance has a more realistic atmosphere and an increased presence.

Today, I would like to introduce this manufacturer called "SHIMANO" again.

If you go to a bicycle shop, you can see 100 % of this SHIMANO logo.
In fact, I think that it is almost unfamiliar manufacturer except for full -fledged bicycle riding.

However, if you look carefully at the bicycle world, you will encounter this logo in surprisingly many scenes, from mamachari, road bike, cross bike and MTB.

After all, SHIMANO is the "big boss" that supports the world's bicycle industry behind the scenes.

As an aside, this is the headquarters factory in Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture.

Anyway, it's big.

Furthermore, this factory has a lot of green spaces on the premises, and the excellent appearance with full glass is highly evaluated.
In 2016, he won the Osaka City Landscape Architectural Award Osaka Prefectural Governor Award.

Of course, it's not just the size of the headquarters factory.

As of 2017, the operating profit margin is around 20 %, and the stock market capitalization is higher than "Mitsubishi Heavy Industry", "Fujitsu", "Aeon", etc.1,620 billion。
In addition, it is a real debt that exceeds the amount of the yen interest -bearing debt, and the equity ratio is 88 %.
It is a good company that has a "super" financial structure.

In fact, the company also handles fishing utensils such as reels and rods, but the pillars of profits are still bicycle parts.

According to the estimation of SMBC Nikko Securities, SHIMANO supplies 85 % of the world share in sports bicycles.
About 70 % of bicycles with shifting machines are being greatly separated from competitors Icanpagnolo and US slums.

Even in the world's largest bicycle race held in France, even in the "Tour de France"
Shimano products are overwhelmingly supported, and in the 2016 tournaments, 17 out of 22 participating teams have adopted the company's parts.

If you see SHIMANO products, you can't help but worship. As expected, big boss.
However, the topic so far does not come up with the essential fixie bikes.

I thought ...

Did you understand ...

The word "DURA" projected at the bottom of the image.

SHIMANO "Dura-Ace"

The image refers to road parts, but in this "Dura-Ace" lineup, the truck section certainly exists.

The truck crank in that department was introduced at the beginning

SHIMANO "Dura-Ace" Track "FC-7710"

What is it?

The following supplements,

In addition to this "DURA-ACE", Shimano has a grade for components such as "105" and "Ultegra" to develop products.

SHIMANO 105 BR-R7000 BRAKE SET

In particular, the "105" brake caliper that produces a small brake touch that is not proportional to the price is
It is a trust and achievement part that many people in BROTURES are used by many people.

In addition, there are various grades in gravel and MTB components.
The grade “Dura-Ace” is the highest grade that is not pushed.

The initials of Duralumin (durability) and Durability (durability = durability), which are extremely strong among aluminum.
Furthermore, this grade, which is named from the ACE (ace) with the wish of "the best in the world", enhances the riding to an incomparable level.

The complex mysterious performance when it comes to letters is simple and clear.

Simple "hardness".
Exhibits power transmission performance with excellent rigidity due to high strength and hardness due to hardness.

To the details, keep an eye on the carefully sharpened details.

Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, where the headquarters is located, has a blacksmith tradition and has flourished as a "kitchen knife and gun town" since the 16th century.

The sharp shine reminiscent of a kitchen knife, a sword is as if it is a story about the roots.

The dedicated "octalink BB" is a completely unique standard.
Compared to the conventional square taper BB and the new standard outboard BB, the specifications are more closer to the latter.
You can enjoy a powerful acceleration close to a direct crank.

This time, the "BB-7700" that can adjust the ball on the same principle as the cup andcorn.
Two types of "BB-7710", which are easier to maintain, are available.
Please choose according to your preference.

As mentioned above, it has become very long

・ SHIMANO is not odd

・ DURA-ACE is serious

These two points will be on the test at the beginning of the week, so please take a look at everyone.

Then.
