Just had mine turn up, not fitted them yet but.....
Same weight as XTR, near as dammit same price (£430ish). Running 27T/40T double as apparently the extra power from the 'oval' rings negate the need for 3 rings.
Just intrigued to see if anyone else out there has tried them & what they thought before i bugger my knees.

my mate runs them but says he cant tell much difference and he would have been annoyed if he had had to pay for them (sponsored so lots of freebits ;-( that said they are on the first setting and hes not fiddled with the placement of the rings yet as you can move them about apparently to create more of an oval.
yeah lost me too lol. they look rather nice tho 😉
I'd like to give the rings a try on my road bike but they are so damn expensive 🙁
I've orderd a single ring for the front (33t) as I'm running 1x8 to see what its like. ACL is missing from my left knee and this may help a bit to smooth out my pedaling style.
I do fancy the agilis crankset though, although the wife might have something to say about the price!!
Reminds me of the cnc stuff off of the '90's
Run the rings on Shimano M960 and M970 Chainsets as well as on the Single Speed. Removed the granny ring from both as well.
I have found them really good for climbing, seem to be able to spin a bit easier and use a higher gear as well.
Would have liked a 38t Ring for the singlespeed but only 44t available for Shimano 104 bcd cranks at the moment
