I'd like to hear from anyone who has swapped the Shimano DA crank to 7900/7950 from a 7800 level setup. How does it shift. We all know Shimano says incompatible but that sounds mostly like marketing. Can anyone tell me from real world experience that it shifts very well?
I've got a bike with 7800 all over it. Unfortunately DA didn't offer a 7800 compact crank. Now that it does, I'd like to upgrade and I would like to go to shorter crank arms so, I figure, two birds with one stone. I've found a great price for the 7950 crank and I expect that there would be no problems over Ultegra-level compact (the only piece that wasn't 7800) but I want to be sure
