Token chainrings... opinions?

Hi all,

I'm looking for some replacement chainrings and came across these:

Anyone here have experience with Token products or specifically these
chainrings??

I need a new set to replace my 9 spd 105 rings which are looking a bit
scary. Any other recommendations welcome.

Cheers,

yo bean... I've got a 53 from my 105 strip down laying around. It has
a few good kms left in it. http://tinyurl.com/2lmpv7 my out of focus
shot doesn't really do it justice

Thanks Lama, I'll keep it in mind. Also looking for a 39 or thereabouts.

Just out of interest, how many k's has it done and how much would you be
asking? It's a bit hard to tell how worn (or not!) it is in the pic.

mates rates, I have no use for it. The 39 is on my SS, and I'm never
going to run a 53 on that

Come grab if you like (kew), if it works well then paypal me a
donation... if it doesnt work, throw it at your neighbours cat (*ducks
and runs from cfsmtb*)

Not chainrings, but the Token BB I had had bearings made from cheese.

Don't say that, I just bought a Token crankset :-(.

Unfortunately I'm in Canberra, but I'll keep it in mind. Doesn't look
too bad in that photo. However, I'm also replacing the cassette and
chain at the same time, so a brand new set of rings would be the smart
option. Many thanks.

Will do. It's the 200EX-AL MTB crankset but that just means if the
bearings and chainrings are no good I'll find out quicker than I would
if it was for the roady.

I actually bought it a month ago but I am not going to install it until
my new frame arrives. So hopefully I'll have some feedback on shifting
performance in a couple of weeks.
