more chainset advice

OK, so think i'm getting there. Appreciate any advice save me wasting my cash!

I'm considering getting this chainset to go on my TCR Advanced1

FSA SLK Carbon Compact Chainset S-9 .

I'm reckoning that i'll also need to get the bottom bracket. Currently its Shimano Dura Ace Press Fit according to the bike spec.

Will i be alright getting the FSA Platinum ISIS Bottom Bracket 68x108mm to go with the chineset.

Will this work & anything else I need, and do you reckon this is a decent setup andl do the job, or would i be better off sticking with Shimano parts?
:shock:

If you have press fit bearing you'll need a compatible chainset. Chainsets needing a traditional BB (like ISIS/Square Taper, etc) are not compatible.

Your best bet is a Dura Ace chainset - probably the best chainset out there.

err yeah, but I'm trying to avoid spending much cash! I drive a golf, but i'd have a porsche if i couldnt afford one!

So that chainset and BB wont be fit my frame?

thanks

You're stuck with anything Hollowtech 2 compatible I guess.

So Tiagra/105/Ultegra (SL)/Dura Ace

(Some of the FSA MegaExo chainsets too, but I don't think all of them are)
