I recently did a very similar replacement. I originally had a Campagnolo Centaur Ultratorque 10 speed crank and changed to the newer 4 arm style Chorus 11 speed crank. Shifting is, if anything, better than it was before. I made the change because I wanted to move to a compact crank setup for an upcoming trip to Europe and I felt the need for lower gearing. I don't know or care if the new crank is lighter than the old one
