my 105 bike with a non shimano double crankset works smoothly, quickly and reliably....
my 105 bike with a non shimano triple crankset does NOT work smoothly reliably or quickly. in fact it is very cranky. soooo, do i look at the derrailleur, the crankset, both? or is this a common problem with the 105 series using any triple crank? :confused:

I have had an FSA triple crankset that I could never get to shift properly. Installed a Shimano CS and all was well.

Other than that, it is just a matter of adjustment, unless something is bent or bkoken.

thanks TF, as the triple bike is still new i will see what the LBS can do to smooth it up. if no luck i will switch to a shimano set. better anyway
