Shimano:
At Shimano, they're doing everything they can to respond to heightened environmental concerns.
They're proud to be a producer of bicycle components and sport fishing equipment, recreational tools that help people to enjoy outdoor sports and interact with nature through healthy non-polluting activities. In their 80 years of existence they have accumulated a wealth of technology and product development expertise that serves as the driving force behind their continually evolving product line.
Chainsets:
Your chainset must fit onto your bottom bracket! There are currently four chainset/bottom bracket interfaces that you're likely to come across. If your bottom bracket is made by Shimano and it has splines, then you need an Octalink chainset. If your b/b is NOT made by Shimano and it has splines, it's almost certainly ISIS. There are a very few non-Shimano chainsets with Shimano Octalink interfaces so, to be sure, count the splines - ISIS has 9, Octalink has (surprise, surprise) 8. No matter which brand of b/b you have, if it has a square interface, it will require a traditional square taper chainset. If you have one of the new Hollowtech II systems, you will need to choose the exact chainset that matches your bottom bracket. Most MTB chainsets are now 9-speed compatible but these will work with an 8-speed system.
