It isn't? Ok. I wouldn't know, I know nothing about top athletes, seriously.

I do mash quite often, as here it's hilly, and running on a SS requires it. Other than that, I don't have a clue. I might dig up one of the 3/32" chainrings I proclaimed dead, and try to post a pic. And then the 1/8" chainring I put into storage.

EDIT: could only find the one I put away in storage. And you can see why I stored it away: it's almost like new, after 12.000 Km.
