@edd asks:

Q4. Does anyone have experience with oval chainrings? Thinking of possibly switching another (3rd party) step down in tooth count as the kids get heavier with our hills and oval chainrings are supposed to help with climbing, and I need all the climbing I can get without buying a new groupset (or bike).

@ascentale @edd @bikenite love them on my single speed mountain bike, they are amazing to crawl up steep stuff with low cadence. Secret single speed weapon to be honest, always wonder why not more single speeders use them.
I also have oval rings on the gravel bike, not sure I notice them tbh, but they made it possible at the time to go smaller than stock...
