Top quality
Used intensively for 5 years and never a penny of pain. Now it is worn out and recently the chain fell off. That was the first time in 5 years, really an achievement!
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
perfect just like that!
Very nice for looks , light and efficient. Starting from the original sprocket 32, I chose 32 for this AB too. I am on the trails a lot and partly on the road. By now I have done quite a few km on it with this oval and therefore experience with it. What I notice is that it is easier to get up on climbs. It is more gradual, so I am less prone to wheelspin (mud and roots) on a hill because you distribute your power better now. For the straights it makes no difference and you get used to it in no time. Some people will take 34 instead of 32, but when I'm in top gear I don't get above my normal cadence, and I still have plenty of room left (top speed of 52 km/h with 32 x 11/50 cassette).

Reliable, robust but expensive
This is my second tray from this brand. Perfect but expensive. Price of quality?
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Perfect replacement for the standard round chainring
This is now my second one. Perfect replacement for the standard round chainring. Because it is oval, the dead centre is different, making for smoother climbing, but also making it easier to get to the top on muddy slopes. Chain never falls off the chainring and the lifespan is definitely as good as the standard chainring. I replace it as standard together with cassette (XG 1195), which only wears out after the 3 chains I change with also wear out.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
beautiful and effective
Switching from a round 32T to an oval 30T on a 12-speed single chainring. As a beginner to mountain biking, this change of chainring means I'll have less trouble on my long rides. I'm on flat pedals, so there's a feeling of a hole in the pedalling when you're not in the right gear. With practice, after 2 outings, it suits me and allows me to do some relaunches that I couldn't do before.

AbsoluteBLACK Spiderless Oval Chainring
Description
The Absolute Black Spiderless Oval is a chainring for a 1x10 or 1x11 setup and smoothens out your pedal stroke. These oval chainrings have a turnover rate of 11%: the 32 tooth version has a minimum of 30 and a maximum of 34 teeth (see illustration). Each pedal move has a 'dead point'. This is when the cranks are vertical. At this point it is not possible to apply pressure, that's why you want to get over this point as fast as possible. Oval rings are narrower where they reach their 'dead point', meaning it's easier to get over this dead point. What happens next is you reach your point of maximum power. You will pass your dead point faster with less power loss, to reach your point of maximum power. This allows efficient pedaling causing less fatigue. This chainring has built in spacers of 2 mm and screw holes to create a better chain line. The ovality of this chainring is 11% which means you need a couple of days to get used to this,but after that there are only benefits! This chainring is equipped with the most advanced narrow / wide tooth profile and guarantees a long lifespan. Easy to mount, just by sliding it over the crank, and bolt it down with 3 screws. You only need an allen key.Technology
