Very noob question regarding cranks
 
Hi there. I ride a 2007 pinarello f3:13. Right now I have a 'Most' brand crank, which I've heard is actually a rebranded FSA crank. I'd like to upgrade the crank to either ultegra 6600 or dura ace 7800. All my other components are ultegra 6600.

I believe the bike accepts an Italian bottom bracket. What are my crank options because of this? Sorry, I'm terrible when it comes to this stuff and would hate to purchase the wrong crank.

Thanks in advance:hug:

You can buy any crankset that has a compatible bottom bracket in Italian spacing...which is about 99% of the cranks out there.

Either of the crankset would work fine. You would need a bb cups like this to go with it:

That's interesting. I have know direct experience, but most of the complaints I hear about oem FSA cranksets seem to revolve around crappy bottom brackets. Seems like an easy fix to just install some $30 shimano cups right off the bat.
