Is there such thing as a cheap chainring that is not to far off round? Im still fooling around with ratios and im not looking to drop a ton of money. Please soothe the inconsolable rage with your experiences and suggestions.
Edit for 2/16/11 summation:
-Blackspire agreed by multiple online persons to be a sure fire bet for best quality for least cost.
-Origin 8 older thicker model chainrings are cheep and steezy for the least cash, but allegations of cheaper and thinner new models.
-Rocket rings are claimed to be hideous when mounted 130 but cheap and round.
-Higher cost rings sugino,miche, etc provide reliable quality.
Paraphrased words of wisdom from M_S:Swallowing your pride and not running a super tight chainline will be more forgiving to minor variances with little cost in performance and wear to average users.
Also be sure to rotate your chainrings:
