Will it work?
Can I use a vintage super record crankset with a newer (05) Veloce 10 speeds group? (ergo shifters, FD, RD, 10 speeds chain and casstte) Will I run into chain line problem or chain spacing problem since 10 speeds chain is narrower?
Thanks
Andrew

I'm trying to build up my steel bike using spare parts that I've collected so far, I have all of the veloce 10 speeds components except the crankset and BB but I do have a good set of Super Record crankset 52/42 available but no BB. Should I purchase a BB for Super Record crankset and use it or I should better off getting a new Veloce crankset and BB since the Super Record crankset will not work with 10 speeds component?
Thanks
Thanks

If you can find some 10s 144bcd chainrings.
I think you'll be better off buying the Veloce and saving the SR for a vintage drivetrain

Excuse me butting in ... what's the difference in a 10 speed front chain-ring? Is it narrower to match a narrow chain?
Thanks,

Da . Chainring width has gone narrower in the last 5 years so much so that an
"old" /last century crankset with 8-9 speed rings will not work smoothly
with new 10 speed stuff almost a millimeter diff. 7.3 old 5/6/7 speed 7.1 6/7/8 speed
6.6 9speed 5.88 10 speed Campy is 6.8 for 9 spd and 5.9 for 10 speed just to keep us awake.
there are more ....but why... oh yeah single speed 1/2"x1/8" is 7.8
and now SRAM has its very own 10speed at 5.95mm
So there.
