11sp Chorus with DA 7900 Cranks?
Will a 2012 Chorus FD work with DA 7900 cranks?
I had been slowly piecing together a pre-2015 Chorus 11sp group (everything but the cranks) in anticipation of finding a sweet new frame to build it up on. Well I ended up buying a complete bike w/ full DA 7900 instead. I'd like to throw my campy parts on before deciding to keep them and buying the matching crank.

You already have the DA crank so why not try it with the Campy parts? If it works, you are home free. If not you can always spend the $$$ on the Campy crank.

Should work. The front end of drivetrains are a lot more forgiving than the back end.
