absoluteBLACK Oval Road Chainring for 110/5 BCD
The absoluteBLACK Oval Road 110/5 chainring for 5-arm cranks with 110 mm bolt circle diameter
This oval 2-speed chainring by absoluteBLACK was developed for five-arm Shimano road bike cranks with 110 mm bolt circle diameter. These include Dura-Ace 7950, Ultegra 6750, 105 5750 and many more. The chainring is designed for super-fast and smooth shifting. It is made of premium quality aluminium and is characterised by particular rigidity. Thanks to the oval shape, you optimise your pedalling movement, reduce the strain on your knees and move forward faster.

Compatibility:
- Crank:
- older 5-arm cranks with 110 mm bolt circle diameter, e.g. Shimano Dura-Ace 7950, Ultegra 6750, 105 5750, Tiagra 4650 (also Di2 groupsets) / FSA / Rotor 3D, 3D+ / Specialized S-Works / SRAM Force, Red without hidden chainring bolt
- Chain:
- 10-speed or 11-speed
Note from the manufacturer:
The chainrings are not compatible with SRAM cranks with removable spider and hidden chainring bolt, e.g. Force 22, Rival 22. Long bolts are required for the outer chainring. If you are only replacing the small chainring, continue to use the original bolts.Features:
- oval shape for improved traction and performance uphill
- faster, looser riding with a natural pedalling motion with reduced strain on the knees
- ovality and timing (108 - 109.5°) matched to chainring size (TDC technology, Top Dead Center)
- 15% less shifting operations needed
- 5 mm thick and 15% stiffer than comparable chainrings
- 6 shift ramps, 12 downshifting points and design with cutouts for fast, smooth shifting
- excellent weight to stiffness ratio
- durable construction, CNC-machined
- anodised
- premium quality
- designed in Great Britain, manufactured in Poland
Technology:
Oval ChainringsOval chainrings follow the natural physiology of humans. They maximise pedalling power the moment it is developed and minimise resistance when it is not. As a result, oval chainrings allow the rider to pedal more smoothly and stay loose on the climb.
In fact, your pedal stroke will feel " rounder" with an oval chainring than with a round chainring.
Compared to round chainrings, oval chainrings address more muscle groups - but each of them to a lesser degree. The total load of pedalling is therefore distributed over a larger muscle mass and the knees are less strained.
This has three advantages: 1. The legs remain fresher and more relaxed. 2. You can go uphill faster. 3. Spreading the load over more muscles reduces the susceptibility to cramps, even with great effort. Ultimately this will increase your riding pleasure. For MTB applications, the rear wheel traction is increased on loose and slippery surfaces, allowing you to make better progress on demanding terrain.
