Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it!
It's a bit of an odd duck with the 86 BCD, but one can still find new rings from Europe if needed. I'm not sure why it didn't stick around. Even though it predated mountain bikes, it's probably the 110/74 combo that became MTB ubiquitous that killed it off. For road I find it just perfect.
