Chainring Compatibility
So, at some point, I'm going to have to replace my chainrings. My crank is a 5500-series 105 crank. I'm wondering, are the 5700 series chainrings any different? Putting photos of the two side-by-side, they look identical. Are they? Or is there a subtle difference that I'm missing?

They may or may not be 100% identical, but they are certainly 100% compatible.
