Hi All: I am trying to decide on the crankset for a new bike build. It will be a 10 speed drivetrain with a compact crankset. The options I'm presently considering are Dura Ace 7950, Campy Centaur, Chorus or Record (11 speed, shimmed for 10 speed if necessary), maybe the Fulcrum RS. I'm not convinced the standard 50/34 rings are quite right for me however, I'd prefer 48/34 or possibly 48/36. None of these cranks seem well suited to changing rings however. The Dura Ace looks particularly unsuited to changing rings so I'm leaning toward the Campy. I have heard that even the Campy won't shift well if the rings get changed. Is this true? I would likely use the TA rings if I made this change.
Has anybody successfully changed rings on one of these cranks and gotten good / excellent shifting?
Does Campy make replacement rings in the required sizes (48 outer, 36 inner)?
Does the Fulcrum crank use Campy rings (110/112 bcd) or standard 110bcd?
Is the Fulcrum RS and good reliable crank?
If I did a change like this, should I change both rings even if I only need to change one?
Thanks
Jon
