    Does anyone know if works components have a race face cinch compatible chainring in the pipeline? Or does the collective wisdom know if the GXP SRAM version would fit my Aeffect cranks?
    I’m oval curious, but am loath the spunk £50 sheets on the absolute black or woolftooth versions….

    There is this one http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/oneup-components-narrow-wide-cinch-oval-single-chainring/rp-prod141761

    I am looking for a 30T, blonicon also do one but out of stock.

    Sram gxp won’t fit if you have 30mm spindle

    Stedlocks SRAM fit ones will not fit aeffect cranks or cinch system I’m afraid. I purchased an absolute black variant for my fatty 28t oval as its the only one I could find at the time. Bloody expensive at £65 I think it was. But it’s a great bit of kit I love it!

    I’ve just got the Absolute Black ones. Review is here

    They are superb. Fair enough a little more than a £25 Superstar jobbie but the oval is a revelation.

    I bought my AB cinch oval ring from ubyk, £46, same price as direct but free p&p instead of about £6 if remember right.
    So far so good.

    I got an AB one and it’s a perfectly good part, but they dicked me around on the order as is their way. If I was doing it again I’d go with Wolftooth or Oneup, as to the best of my knowledge they’re not bellends.

    Works have one on the to-do list but with Works that can mean long waits, they only make new stuff when they have time, which isn’t often.

    Absolute Black ring here and it is great. Best chain retention of any narrow/wide I’d have to date.

    I’ve bitten the bullet and gone for one….an AB in 32 tooth flavour.
    Hopefully, it will ease the knee issue following my crash……that’s the aim anyway!

    AbsoluteBLACK do a 30 day trial offer; if you dont like the oval then they will chamge for a round. I am well impressed with the quality, worth the cash imo.
