ROTOR Q Oval Chainrings

Rotor Q Ring 52T 110x5 BCD Outer Aero Chainring

Rotor Q Ring 52 Tooth, Outer Aero Chainring, with 10% ovality for greater pedalling effeciency.

These Rotor Q-Rings feature a subtle yet efficient 10% ovality which can be user adjusted to take advantage of your full pedal stroke potential. Aero in design, they are available as outer rings only (black or red), in various sizes & BCD fitments.

Oval chainrings featuring subtle but efficient 10% ovality where the smallest diameter is at the weakest point of the pedal stroke and the maximum diameter at the strongest point of the pedal stroke. Q-Rings offer 5, sometimes 4 or 3, Optimum Chainring Positions (OCP) that can be adjusted to take advantage of the pedals stroke's most productive zone.

Q-Rings are ideal for riders trying these rings for the first time and getting the correct setup can take a short period of time. Would advise newbie users of Rotor Q-Rings to take careful note of setup and also NOT to try the QXL chainrings as these are designed for specific riders and riders with lots of experience in using Q-Rings.

Key Features:

Q-Rings offer 10% ovality

Q-Rings ensure exceptional drivetrain stability

Q-Rings can increase an avid cyclist’s performance by as much as 4 seconds per km in a sprint – that’s twice the benefit of an aero wheelset

Outer ring only fitting 110 BCD cranks (5 spider)

5 Optimal Chainring Position (OCP) points 

Aero design, reinforced rigidity and aerodynamic

Designed to work with all 9, 10 and 11 speed groupsets

Some cranks require specific Q-Rings

With Q rings you can ride further and faster with less fatigue because you are using your muscles more efficiently. Thanks to their oval shape, Q rings boost cycling performance by varying drivetrain resistance during pedaling in line with the legs' natural strengths and weaknesses. By orienting the narrowing diameter of the oval to the weakest point of the pedal stroke and the widening diameter to the strongest point of the pedal stroke, you can take full advantage of the most-productive part of your pedal rotation (while lessening time spent in the least-productive part).
