New Shimano Products Technical Information guide?
Dear All
Does anyone have a copy of the new "Shimano Products Technical Information" guide? I have just one for the years 2015-2016.
Or is this still the newest one? Where can I download it? I don't find any download link at all. It's a little misterium to me.
Best regards
Matt

I think they are far behind on their manuals and that the 15-16 is the latest, with some addendums hidden on their download site

Dear all
Thanks for your answers.
Can someone download a copy of this manual and send it to me? I don't have a dealer access, but I want to create some wooden bike frames with Shimano components. And it would be great to have the latest manual.
Best regards
Matt

I'm unsure of what copyright protections Shimano likes to follow but I do know they can be willing to work with when approached. Have you tried to contact Shimano directly yet? Andy

Hi Andy
Yes, I wrote to the Shimano Distributor Partner in my country today. I wait for a answer now. We will see and I will update the thread.

Matt- Sorry, I though you were in the US. I know that Shimano North America has been friendly with small builders and non full time builders before. Andy

Hi Andy, no Problem. I get today a answer from my country distributor. They say that they don't have access to this guide, because they're only repsonsible for the after market sales, but not for complete new bike builds. (I can hardly believe this, but could be the case).
So story goes on, but now it gets worse and worse ;-).
Maybe I should contact Shimano North America as you suggested. Chears Matt

Dear Community
I still can't believe it, but someone out of this forum was kind enough to send me the newest guide. I realy appreciate his effort and say: Many many thanks.

I, too, would appreciate a copy of that guide, since I need detailed dimensions for some of Shimano's newer cranksets I am considering for my frame.
