upgrading cranks and bb/ compatibility
I currently have a full sram setup with some crapjob crank setup and internal bb. i want to upgrade to an external bb and a nicer crank so my choices are sram force with the standard gxp or ultegra (6700 or 6750) and dura-ace 7900 bb(price is not an issue,both with run right under 300 w/bb). Would there be any compatibility issues running the shimano cranks with sram components? How about differences in performance?

just don't mix GXP BB with shimano crank or shimano BB with GXP crank and you'll be fine.
