We Ride, We Rule.

You think this is our time? Think again. We’ve always been around, doing our own thing, finding our own way, breaking down barriers. Because we rule. From the first females who secretly took part in men's races back in the days to modern day pros standing up for equality in cycling. From solo adventurers exploring their own boundaries to you and your friends heading out for a social spin. Every woman riding paves the way for all women riding.

We share the same road

Yes, cycling had some catching up to do, but things are changing rapidly. More and more of us embrace the beauty of the sport and the freedom of the road. It doesn’t matter if we’re a racing as pros or going for a social spin, we enjoy the same speed, the same thrill, the same sense of being exactly where we want to be.

Made to fit

SHIMANO has always stood by female cyclists. Today we are doing that bigger and bolder than ever before. With a full range of specific women’s gear. Designed with and for women, from aero kit to outfits for casual or more adventurous rides. This way you’ll always wear the kit that is made to fit and match your way of riding.

Make every stroke count

Serious rides or races where performance counts with every pedal stroke: look no further than the Yuri range of (bib) shorts and jerseys. Sophisticated designs, well thought out technical details like flatlock seams, aero sleeves and lightweight materials crafted into a women specific cut makes this kit of choice for women who want to go faster.

Rely on your kit

The Sumire jerseys and shorts are made for rides that take you further out, when you really need to rely on your kit. The Mizuki range offers fresh designs and a more casual fit at a very attractive price point. So no matter what style or level you enjoy to ride, Shimano has the kit that matches it.

Battered, beaten, and taken for granted, the sole of the MTB shoe is a workhorse that is crucial to the connection between you and your bike. And when it comes to mud wrestling, high-speed descending, powering up rocky climbs, and high-altitude walkabouts, the sole of your shoe can make all the difference for better control and more comfort both on and off the bike. That’s why we developed the next generation of MTB soles. Meet ULTREAD, the all-new mountain bike shoe technology that delivers a mix of sturdy rubber compound and smart tread designs that offer a true upgrade whether you’re using flat pedals or SPD on your mountain bike.

Ride or race, gravel cycling is about the adventure ahead. The comradery with friends or the friendly competition with others. Gravel is about getting up early to explore unknown roads or to push ourselves to new levels, and beyond.

Cycling doesn’t need to be complicated. It can be simple, straightforward, and all about the freedom of two-wheeled adventures. And while it may feel like cycling sometimes requires a deep wealth of technical know-how, the best components and bike technology require minimal thought. They work as intended, all the time.

Shimano 105 Di2: It’s a new day

In 1982, Shimano 105 was launched to the cycling world, slotting beneath Dura-Ace and Shimano 600 Series (later rebranded Ultegra). The new road group quickly gained popularity as a budget-friendly platform that delivered high-level functionality trickled down from higher-end models. In the ensuing decades, Shimano 105 was updated seven times, each iteration providing ever-improving technology in an approachable package.

SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING

We constantly search for new ways to promote health and happiness through the enjoyment of nature and the world around us. Product packaging is a huge opportunity to reduce waste and deliver our products more sustainably. That is why we decided to transition to more sustainable packaging solutions for our components and service, and upgrade parts, footwear, apparel, and most eyewear packaging.

Similarities and Differences Between EP801 and EP6

In 2022, we launched the EP801, the successor to our popular EP800 e-bike system. The new drive unit provides more support, offers more connectivity options, is compatible with our new battery management system and enables the revolutionary AUTO SHIFTand FREE SHIFT technologies.

SHIMANO CUES for Drop Bar

Introducing CUES for Recreational Road and Gravel Riding

Tour de France 2024 the Beauty, the Battle, the Bikes

Shimano-supported riders Biniam Girmay and Remco Evenepoel won the Green and White jersey, respectively, at the Tour de France 2024. The competition was fierce, and the road was long and perilous. It takes a profound athlete to brave the mammoth challenge of the Tour de France. And it takes a special… je ne sais quoi… to come out on top with a jersey.

Road to Paris: Paved With Gold

This year, the Tour de France may have ended in Nice. But for the hard-working athletes involved, the road led straight to the Eiffel Tower in Paris. With a backdrop worthy of a classic film, where champions speed from Montmartre, past the Arc de Triomphe, onwards to the history books. With the Time Trial starting just north of the tower, in Invalides.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSPECTION

Shimano New Zealand Limited (“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.

SHOE FITTING & CLEAT SETTING

The optimal shoe size is found by measuring the arch length, foot length and width. This sizing information can then be cross-checked with the shoe size table, to find the shoe size and width that best matches the rider.

SHIMANO AGAINST THE TAMPERING WITH E-BIKES

Shimano speaks out against any kind of manipulation of e-bikes and e-bike drive systems, e.g., to increase the performance or the maximum supported speed.

Important notice for E-BIKE battery BT-E8016 users
