Hi Guys,

I'm planning on buying a Stages powermeter for my bad weather bike. I found a good deal on the Ultegra 6700 version.
my bike is currently outfitted with ultegra 6700 groupset, but with a triple crank. I want to change this to a compact or pro compact setup because I never use the 30t ring and I want a cleaner chainline.
I can only seem to find the 6750 crankset in the grey version, but the Stages arm is silver.

So I was thinking I could perhaps buy the new 5800 crankset in the silver colourway. It isn't the most weight weenie part, but durability low cost is preferred.

my questions:

-does the 5800 silver colour match the 6700 silver?
-will I be able to use the 5800 crankset with a 10 speed groupset
-will the 5800 crankset offer me equal or better performance as the 6750 crankset?

thanks!
But I could be wrong

will the 6700 front derailleur shift a 52-36 toothset?
