  1. Is it possible to use the chain rings from a 7703 setup with the crank
    arms from a 7700? They look at first blush to be a match, but I have
    to guess without actually taking them both apart and trying. Do the
    7700 cranks fit onto the 7703 BB?
    Thanks
    David

  2. Basic answer - NO! Sheldon Brown's excellent Dura Ace article explains
    in part:

    "the Dura-Ace is specifically designed NOT to fit a standard 130 double
    crank, because the "shelves" that support and center the middle ring
    get in the way. The "triple" Dura-Ace crank has had these "shelves"
    machined off flush, so it is the only crank that can accept this
    chainring, even though it does still use the standard 130 mm bolt
    circle."
