Which is the go to oval chainring these days?

I have used the AB ones in the past on my hardtail, now looking at putting one on the full sus bike.

All of the usual's offer one, OneUp components, Wolftooth and even Superstar. Any I've missed?

The crank I have is the FSA Comet, so requires the cannodale SI direct mount one or spider.

Any thoughts?

Works components.
2500+ miles on mine and it’s still got a bit more life in it.

The superstar chainring being stainless looks a good choice for longevity. Bit price at 79.99

Ive been really happy with the AB ones. They seem to last for ages with me. My newest one is a year old and the oldest 3 years

unless you actually need a new ring I wouldn't bother. They don't make any difference. If you do really want one then get the same teeth as your current ring.

Absolute Black here - from [url= https://www.ubyk.co.uk/catalog/search_results.php?searchwords=absolute+black ]Ubyk[/url] (if they're still trading? Heard they were in trouble or something..)
RF branded are nearly £60!

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Just one thing to note, the FSA Comet uses the cannonadale SI system not the RF cinch. Which limits my options and increases the cost.
