Thanks! Crankset is actually an R565, but I don't mind the extra few ounces. Plus the Shimano rings shift like butter. I've always had FSA rings and even the cheap Shimano stuff shifts better IMO.

I agree about the 6600 crankset though. I've got a full almost NOS gruppo of 6603 (ice grey) that I'm waiting to put on my vintage Trek. Waiting for a deal on an A23 wheel set for that bike as well As Jack Johnson says, always sitting, waiting, wishing.
