#1 Does the Zeus crankset with the small five pin inner circle have the same as TA 5 pin inner circle? In effect can one use TA chain rings on a Zeus. The look is the same but I do not know if there is interchange possibility. It is well known for Zeus to be considered a Campagnolo knock-off. It is conceivable that they would knock off the popular TA crankset also. Perhaps this is one for Hilary.

My memory was that I tried this, "back in the day," and that the Zeus did not interchange with Stronglight-TA-Williams-Duprat and others. But Sutherland's 3rd says they are all the same 50 mm BCD.
