hi all,

ive put about 200 miles on these chainrings, mostly in Quantocks sandy type soil, the rings now have a noticable pattern as if worn away on the trailing edge slightly more than the U shape on my middleburn rings on another bike.

i'm interested to know if the rings have worn, and if they have then surley they should have lasted a wee bit longer? i'm unable to find a good enough pic to compare the rings to a new set, and wonder if i'm just being unreasonable or paranoid....
