Oops, my bad. I meant chain. Pesky letters.
Now I am running an Absolute Black Oval 30.
i'm only inquiring because siko is looking to run eewings, which use a sram interface for the chainrings. and it seems that as of right now noone is making a chainring for 12spd shimano with that interface in the size siko is looking for.

Yup, I have recently searched. 28 is Sram Country. (In a shimano 12 compatible version).
that being said, 51/30 is REALLY fucking low.

i'm only involving myself in this as an eewings user that will probably be using 12 speed shimano when the time comes to n+1 my bikes. then again, where i currently live there's no need for such low gearing, the longest climbs locally are 10 minutes tops.

I am on a 42/30 right now and can climb pretty much everything. Just want an option for something easier if I need it.
I will start with a AB oval 30T. Wish they still had the ee wings Ti color

Isn't the smallest 12spd large cog you can get a 45t? If you want the extra bit of low range there it is, or go for the 51t and your 30t chainring gets stupid-mega-ultra low.

Absolute Black did an oval ring that matched the Ti color. I thought about those but not worth the cost just to scuff up

Thanks, that helps for sure. I have only seen one Revved frame with a piggyback shock in which the reservoir was mounted reservoir down and it was a EXT Storia; someone then mentioned that their MRP Hazzard didn't fit in that orientation so I'm not sure what to think about the likelihood of either version of the 11-6 body fitting reservoir down.

Good thing GG is awesome; I just called and spoke to Nikki and she will be checking fitment of an 11-6 on an S4 frame to see if reservoir down is an option and potentially give insight into water bottle clearance when the reservoir is facing up.

I thought that was wolf tooth? Or did AB do one too?
I think both make a ring with "EE-wing" finish of some sort, I just don't see anything in 30t

Here is an Absolute Black TiAno, 32T (not seeing anything smaller, and this one is 4.5mm offset)


And the Nickel Plated Wolftooth (again, smallest is 32t in round or elliptical):

I saw a video on YT that said AB made wings that matched but need a 30t.
I guess black it is Unless someone makes a 30t between now and I get my frame and parts.

I am on 10 speed
In that case it doesn’t matter at all IME. The Shimano 12sp seems to be a bit picky, and that’s what you were asking about so I thought you were on 12. 10 speed you could pick any chain cassette and chain ring, mix and match however you wanted, it was the 11spd stuff that got all wonky and drivetrains got picky then the 12spd got even weirder.
