DO OVAL MTB CHAINRINGS WORK? Let's see!
Do oval chainrings work? I wasn't sure, so I tried one out and put it to the test! Here's the results after 3 days of riding with one: Day 1: The oval ring feels weird right away, but feels totally normal after about 3 minutes. I even forgot that he changed chainrings until I got to the top. Day 2: After actually thinking about what's going on while pedaling, I can sort of understand how the oval ring works. You can definitely feel a difference when climbing up and over things, although not dramatically. Day 3: I start to really put the oval ring to the test and starts to hammer over short, punchy bits of his climb. This is when the oval ring is at the biggest advantage. Overall, the oval ring is actually pretty cool. After hearing mixed reviews the past year, I wasn't really expecting to feel much of a difference. There's no crazy dramatic advantage over a normal round chainring, but there is at least a little bit of a bonus. In my eyes, anything that can help on the climbs and help extend your ride is a no brainer in my book! We initially did not have any oval chainrings for sale on our website, but after this test I was impressed enough to bring a bunch of Wolf Tooth Ellpitical Chainrings into stock and put them on the website!
