I want to upgrade my bike from Ultegra to Dura Ace and still have a
triple (10 speed doesn't offer one). Components must be in very
good/
excellent condition.

Not mine, and auction is over but not sold.

You might contact the seller and see what he is willing to do.

If you wanted to save some bucks, you could keep your Ultegra BB,
crankset,
front derailleur and buy the Dura Ace Triple shifters and rear
derailluer.
I've done this on a couple of my bikes and I consider it worthwhile
with a
noticeable improvement in shifting.

I actually have 105 cranks on my Cannondale R900, and I'm not sure at
all about my bottom bracket. My shifters and derailleurs are Ultegra
(triple). I just bought an FSA pro carbon triple crank. I'd love to
find some Dura Ace 9 speed shifters and rear derailleur. what about
the Front derailleur?

You can keep the 105 cranks, the attending bottom bracket and front
derailleur, or use the FSA crank you bought and whatever bottom bracket it
requires. Then you can do some shopping for the triple components he
http://www.comparisonpricing.com/ and put a WTB posting on this site for
triple shifters and rear derailluer. By the way, the Dura Ace rear
derailleur is not necessary, the Ultegra will work fine, but along with the
Dura Ace triple shifters it enchances the shifting quite a bit I've found.
You will only need the Dura Ace triple front derailleur if you are going to
use the Dura Ace triple crankset. It allows the shift from the 39t middle
ring to the 53t big ring to be made, whereas the Ultegra front derailleur
may not have enough lift to make that bif of a jump.
