If ultra-roundness is what you want, I wouldn't get a Zen messenger ring. I'm sure its a fine ring, but not the same quality as the NJS Zen ring, and might not have the same ultra-round quality. I'm not 100% certain of this, but thats my suspicion.

Among available 1/8" chains, which have bushings and which do not?
