Date Reviewed: November 5, 2002 | | Favoriate Trail: | Idalp | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Strengths: | Lasts long, no chainsuck, avalible in all sizes. | | Weaknesses: | none | | Similar Products Used: | Strongligth, suntour. | | Bike Setup: | CUBE team litening, sram 9.0, Magura Louise front, HS silver back, TIME pedals, Raceface Turbine LP, TA Specialites chainrings, ritchey seatpost and stem. No shimano. | | Bottom Line: | I often ride places with a lot of sand so it is incredible hard conditions for chain, chainrings and cassette. I belive it has about the same strenghs as other good rings but the profile with low teeth is very good in mud and sand. When it comes to shifting it shifts. I do not care about silky-smooth shifting like you get on shimano stuff. It just has to work. Try it... | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

All shimano XT setup | | Bottom Line: | Fairly good chainrings for a cvevery low price. But dont expect smooth shifting | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$30.00 | | Strengths: | It lasts forever. It's still not worn out after about 4000 miles ! I change the chain regularly though. It's also a stiff chainring, with average weight. It comes in different sets of colors (that last). | | Weaknesses: | Shifting isn't 100% fluid, when shifting to the big ring (32 to 44) | | Similar Products Used: | Coda | | Bike Setup: | Cannondale F700 with XT and SRAM | | Bottom Line: | A good product for a small price. It lasts long, but the shifting could be better if you're a racer. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
