Apologies, roadie question...

I've got 9 speed Tiagra transmission, but could add a set of 10 speed 105 cranks instead of the FSA Vero I've currently got. Will this work okay or will shifting/chain life be utterly rubbish?

I've just put 9 speed chainset on with 8 speed everything else and it seems fine. General consensus on here was that it would be ok. I'd have thought 10 with 9 would be fine too, if not an even closer match. Best wait for an experts comment though!

Cheers 'robinbetts'. It doesn't feel like it should be a problem, but I thought I better check!
