I already switched the wheels for the Fulcrum 4's I got for the Ritchey. I am ambivalent about the crankset, though. I LOVE the look of the 7410 Dura Ace crank. I have one on the Ritchey as well, and switching to a 7700 small ring makes it work perfectly with 10 speeds (the chain sometimes hung up in No Man's Land with a 10 speed chain and 8 speed rings), but I don't know if that will still work for 11 speeds.
