Hi,

Can I use a compact 105 10 speed 5750 chainset to replace my compact Ultegra 10 speed 6750 chainset?

I have stupidly broken my 6750 chainset and want to replace it; the problem is that I am not swimming in money at the moment.

The 5750 is about £50 cheaper than the 6750 chainset.

This does sound like a strange question but I am looking at saving money as the wife and 3 kids seem to come first, Rule # 11 does not seem to be working at the moment

Thanks

    Yes. What part did you break?

    I have broken the outer chainring and stripped the chainring bolts, expensive mistake but learnt a lesson.

    Have you stripped the thread on the spider?

    No, just some of the bolts and cracked the hollowtech out chainring.
    I have priced the outer chainring around £60 and cannot find any chainring bolts

    If they're 170 or 172.5 cranks then I'd be interested in buying it.
