The Shimano GRX Limited Groupset offers a unique aluminum finish look for frame builders who want to bring a different aesthetic to their gravel bike. This version offers 1x 11-speed shifting, so it does not include a front derailleur. The rear derailleur offers a nearly silent shifting experience along with fast and smooth gear changes. It includes an integrated chain stabilizer mechanism which provides maximum security on difficult terrain. When riding on smooth surfaces, you have the option to turn the chain tensioner on or off to customize your riding experience. It adequately manages the included Steps E6000 Super Narrow Chain which is more efficient and silent than ever. It also has excellent durability so less maintenance is required over the course of its life.

All of this leads to the smoothest possible operation of the 1x11 GRX Limited Gravel Crankset. It is specially designed to balance weight and efficiency for proper mixed-terrain riding. Crankarms are available in different lengths and are specifically geared to gravel riding. Gravel gear ratios result in rhythmic riding over tough surfaces with wider tires. Hollowtech crank arms keep things lightweight and incredibly durable. It is connected to the 11-speed Deore XT cassette which offers a durable alloy sprocket carrier and precise shifting in demanding conditions.

Shifting and braking is all taken care of with the help of the Hydraulic Disc Brake Dual Control Levers. These levers deliver light and responsive shifting that is needed across a wide variety of terrain. They are ergonomically comfortable and intuitive for quick shifts and modulated braking. They help operate the Hydraulic Disc Brake Caliper which has a low-profile flat mount design to provide better control to gravel riders. The pad clearance is 10 percent wider than usual which decreases brake noise. The caliper also features a maintenance-friendly bleeding process. As a whole, the Shimano GRX Limited Groupset gives you a new aesthetic and level of confidence for all-terrain riding.
