Do these naff oval chainrings cause problems? Especially if you try to change under pressure. Front mech hard to get right plus all a bit of a marketing hype.
Very surprising to see someone under British Cycling set up using such crap.

What is in "Paul Wellers" his "Jam" these days? The last clown to throw his bike like a rattle was Mr 60% Ris.

Will have to find someone else to wave my "Jack" at.

Not a bad effort of a post by someone for whom English obviously isn't their first language. Still makes little sense though. Marketing hype causing front mech problems? That's got it!
