Hi, I need to replace the chainrings on my Dura-Ace 7700 cranks (9-speed, if that matters), and I'm wondering, how well do the FSAs shift? I see they have pins and ramps; do they work as well as the Dura-Ace rings, or should I spend the $$ on the OEM gear?

Ever since the "STX" debacle (truly horrible mountain bike crankset that redefined chain-suck), Shimano's been devoting a lot of effort to perfecting chainring technology. The result is better shifting, with the downside being noisier drivetrains and (usually) faster wear. --Mike-- Chain Reaction Bicycles www.ChainReactionBicycles.com
