Bought some Chinese branded Oval chain rings for the cx/Zwift bike to help my knees...

Got these at a good price from eBay,via China, but do you think the name is trying to tell me something? 😃

You think it might make your bike a bit sluggish?

how much did you shell out for that?

Just be careful to start with, as it'll put different strains on your mussels.

Came to just under £40 with the Oval 35T ring too.

I have been using ovals on the mtb for a couple of years now. Love them. Helped my knees hugely. 😃

My 2011 SE racing OM flyer has (had) pedals on called x-pedo. I changed them sharpish.

I've always wondered why Giant thought calling a bike "Snap" was good marketing.

Didn’t Apollo have a bike called ‘Creed’?

Not unfortunate per se, but I chuckled.
