Need some new chainrings and after a few of my racing friends have moved to Rotor Q rings and say a lot of good things about them, I fancy trying some.

I ride a 110 pcd 5 bolt Quarq Elsa, so I ordered 52/36 (my desired chainset) Rotor aero Q rings. I realised after about 3 seconds of receiving them that the large ring wouldn't physically fit over the Quarq spider. Having now googled this, it seems this is an issue. The Rotor rings have a lot of different bolt positions so this makes the inner part of the ring bigger, causing the issue.

Does anyone know if there are any rings that would fit? The non aero rings I think I could get but not sure, and they only come in 50/34 on 110pcd from what I can see.

The Osymetric rings are an option, but they look vastly more extreme that the Rotor rings, does anyone ride these and how have they got on?

Cheers.
