I'm currently running a 6600 large ring and a superbe pro 38t ring on my 9 speed (6510) race bike. Shifts great.
I was thinking there might have been an issue chain wise between 64xx and 65/66xx; you know, a 9 speed chain with
an 8s/9s chain ring mix. Sounds like there isn't an issue after all... cool!
