Shifting between the big ring and small ring are a lot smoother now and noticeably less force is needed. For the $60 total spent (30 for the part, another 15 for a braze on adapter, and 15 to install), I'd say the expense was well worth it.
And that's all that really matters in the end right?
I noticed the same improvement when I went from lowly
Sora Fr Der/FSA Vero Crank/BB to slightly less lowly
Tiagra Fr Der/Ultegra SL Crank/Dura Ace BB.
Enjoy your ride man!
