General Information
Basically the same crankset as the First Generation Dura-Ace group.  This Crank was replaced by the FC-7200 in 1980.

I had originally listed this as a Dura Ace 7200 which is the dyna-drive system and is different from this. It was brought to my attention that it looked like a DA 7110,  I have other 7100 series components, although similar colored packaging, none of them have "EX" printed on the packaging and had a road series sticker, not "EX". As I was researching further, there was a very similar crank set, this was the GA - 300 & listed in their 1979 Catalog,  http://www.velo-pages.com/main.php?g2_itemId=7362 , the packaging I have is very similar to package shown on the left.

Details:   Also came in a 'Black' series early on (78-79 or so).  I do not see any mention of a black style in any of the 1980's catalogs of the 7200 series.
