    Sorry if this is a dumb question but:

    Can I interchange Campag chainsets with Shimano? The reason I ask is that
    the FSA site does not specifically mention Campag or Shimano compatible
    cranks but claim all their products will work on either, but Ebay has some
    listings that say "FSA-Campy" or "FSA-Shimano".

    Are the 9-10 speed Campag chains the same as 10 speed Shimano? Is this a
    marketing ploy or is there really a difference?

    Yes and the chains for Campagnolo and DA 10s are indeed different with the
    shimano being thinner..but you can use any FSA crank with DA or Campagnolo...

    I wonder if the FSA Campagnolo is 135 BCD and the FSA Shimano is 130 BCD?
