I thought about stocking up with several rings while I can, but then I thought, "hey, I'll be 58 in a few weeks. I've got half a dozen bikes. Am I going to NEED more than one set of 86 BCD chainrings?" So I'm going to buy just the one set--that should see me through this world.
If it bothers me that the bolt holes aren't countersunk, I can always take the rings to the local machine shop and have them do it.
