    oval chainrings are unobtrusively amazing. When I hop back on my commuter or big bike with round chainring, I miss the ovality. Especially when climbing or sprinting

    I have recently switched back to round chainring on Transmission, partially also because SRAM support specifically told me they advice against doing that, because during development it was found that the performance with an oval ring was not ideal. Unfortunately the guy didn't have any details to share.

      There's no credible science, studies made by some .. shady manufacturers are pretty much unscientific and based on feelings.

      I'm using oval chainring with Eagle GX, no problem so far, but I had to change my derailleur a few times due to crashes. With Shimano xt rear derailleur the wear on the clutch was ridiculous.
      I believe there is something similar that will wear out on srams side.

    I have trying to get sram chain power meter. But I am not sure it is worth it compared to to other options out there. The power meter doesn’t seen to be compatible with oval due to the shape of the power meter.

    I use a Chinese copy of the absolute black on my old gxp x1 carbon cranks. I think it helps compensate for the fact that I really should be running shorter cranks.
    I still don't get how sram decided on that number of retaining bolts. 😂
