Waiting to pull the trigger on one of these or a regular round ring for 1x10 use.
Any reports on the use of the absolute black Oval rings out there?

Not using their oval rings, but I've got a sram direct mount narrow wide and that's bloody lovely. Light, keeps the chain on. Can't ask for more really!
As above, I'm using a SRAM direct mount NW and it is perfect. The oval rings are hot off the CNC machines so there wouldn't be anyone with any riding time on them for a while. I would want to know more about the placement of the ovalised sections and rationale for this location before buying (rather than just generally putting an oval shape in what generally looks like the right place) but that would be the only thing stopping me try them. A quick check against Rotor and the like first- then I'm sure I'll give these a go next. Also, I think I'd prefer a bigger tooth count too which I think is coming in the next few weeks
I like the green. If they do green spiderless narrow/wide I'll be getting one of those.
