Shimano America Dura-Ace Crankset - Double - 2008

Hollow forging technology makes the Shimano Dura-Ace Double Crankset lighter and stronger than ever before. The integration of crankset and bottom bracket saves on overall weight and radically increases power transfer and rigidity. Integrated crankset and bracket also makes for smoother rolling, once again conserving the energy you put into pedaling. Shimano's forged aluminum hollow crank arms provide amazing strength and rigidity at a light weight.

Bottom Line: Light and strong can't go wrong.

I saw a picture in a cycling magazine of a bike in the Giro with a Dura Ace setup. It showed a 38 tooth ring on the crank that was used for a mountain stage. Does anyone know if Shimano now offers a 38 tooth inner ring for their Dura Ace cranks?

The crankset only comes in 34-50 and 39-53 configurations. I've scoured a couple catalogues and can't find any DuraAce 38T rings, you'll need to go with an FSA or some other manufacturers rings. Also keep in mind that by using a 38T ring, you'll need to change to a 52T outer ring to keep your 10-speed shifting happily.

i own a trek madone 5.9 superlight and am having significant problems with the chain coming off or riding on top of the teeth. All the components are Dura-Ace, the bike is in its third season, I replace the chain every 1200 miles, the casette looks "OK". The mechanic can't figure it out and said I had a "short crank" on the bike which he thought was standard on this bike ?? but muttered something about that being a bad design. In any avent, any ideas to help a frustrated and side=lined biker ??

Does it come off when shifting or just when riding? I can think of three possible reasons1) overshifting - which would mean it comes off when shifting onto the big ring2) worn teeth on big ring - which could result in throwing the chain while riding3) play in the bottom bracket - which seems unlikely given the design of this crankset.Length of the crank arms shouldn't make any difference at all, as far as I can see.good luck
