  1. Has anyone run an FSA Compact 34/50 with a Campy Triple Changer? I have
    read comments that the double chnagers workfine but MAY tend to drop the
    chain on downshifts once in a while.

    Wouldn't the triple changer be little cleaner up and down?

    Any word on when Campy's compact changers will arrive?

  2. I've been running 48-34 chainrings with a Centaur double changer for about
    18 months, and can't ever remember either dropping the chain inside the
    small chainring or overshifting outside the large chainring. Selling a
    specific changer for a chainring that is three teeth smaller than normal is
    a con job by the manufacturer.

    About the same time as Campy's compact cranks. :P

    We have used both and both work fine. We haven't had the fall off the inside
    problem. Front der needs to be adjusted well.

  5. I've got an '04 Campy Carbon FD (double) and one of the new Ritchey WCS 110V
    compact cranks (50-34).

    Works without a hitch. Never over- or under-shifted. However, as mentioned
    earlier, I took great pains to set it up perfectly. YMMV and all that...

    By the way, these are really cool cranks. Light and very sharp-looking.
