I got Dura Ace parts off of EBAY

I have a aluminum motobecane with sora parts. My front derailler's tension spring broke, so I decided to get a new front derailler. I went a little overboard.

Got a
-7700 Dura Ace 9 spd Double Crankset 53-42t
-7700 Dura Ace 9 spd Ti Cassette 11-23t

And I am planning on getting a Dura Ace/Ultegra Front & Rear Derailleur in a month or so, a new Dura Ace/Ultegra Bottom Bracket.

Then I will go for the really expensive shifters and brakes, but to say the least, this is a huge upgrade. I am so excited.

I am going to get a cheap 105 triple front derailler in the meantime though.

105s arent that bad for a front derailler. Especially if you stay in the upper two rings. And 105s will be a huge upgrade over your soras.

Now the real test is how much did you spend on the Dura Ace?

For the 2 parts just a little over $100 😉
One of them is Ti, too.
