I am looking for a long (180mm) crank arm length compact crank set. I currently have a Shimano 9 speed set up. I found a SRAM Rival Crankset that is 180mm, however it is a 10 speed. Can I get this crank set to work with my 9 speed brifters and FD? Any other options?

Thanks

It will work fine with 9s drivetrain. Use a 9s chain.
