I've read about these chainrings flaking off their finish. Personally i do feel the chain rings are kinda flimsy, especially compared to the FSA rings on my synapse.
I hope i'll never get in a crash, but i look forward to replacing the rings with shimano or fsa rings in the near future.
As for your problem, it almost seems like a case of chain suck, but i've never heard of it happeneing on the big ring. I definitly haven't had that problem on my carbon rouleur's. Hope you get taken care of at your local shop.
