I have a 105 crank set, both are 170, but one is FC-1055, and the other is FC-1050. I have not put them on my bike yet because I have concern.

I am wondering how far off the geometry is? Is it different? I know they are both the same length, but what about ....

I'm just concerned because I've got bad knees that I like to be very careful with.

Thanks.
