Has anyone tried the new more oval Q rings XL? I ride with Q rings and am considering trying them though interested to hear anyones experiences of using them first.

    Never heard of them before reading your post.
    Is Rotor admitting that O'Symetric had it right all along by going more oval??

    well they dont have that drop off that o.symmetric do but the bit about the XL's being more suitable for high intensity, and the more muscular guys than the usual Q rings seems an odd statement. Maybe the correct comment would be they XL Qrings are just generally better. Downside for me is I'm not convinced the longer axis will fit my front mech even with a wedge.

    Does anyone know whether the osymmetric rings need less or similar clearance to the Q rings?
