Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Chainring? DA on Ultegra?
Can I throw a DA outer-ring on an Ultegra Crank? Both are 06 models.

It will clash horribly, and folks with an acute eye will recognize you as a D/A wannabe, when deep down you know you're only worthy of Ultegra.

Actually they have the same bolt circle diameter so there should not be an issue.

Not where I live. People won't know the difference or won't say anything. It's called Yankee Reserve.

I'm running an R700 crank with an FSA inner ring (36T) and DA7700 calipers on what would be a full DA7800 rig.
