RaceFace 28T Steel Chainring
by Peter D.
Well made and really robust. I haven't dropped a chain since putting it on. If you run this 28T chainring with a 50/51T cassette you can do near vertical gravity descents the other way round while sitting down (huh?). Great for steep terrain but too slow for undulating or flat trails but at this price, you can afford to get a few different sizes and just swap for different conditions. If you're not watching your weight then get these over the alloy as they'll outlast the alloy by years
Lasts for ages - Turns out steel IS real!
by Kieran
Bought this to replace a worn one (after 4 years). Had noticed the new chains not meshing quite so well on the old one.
Why try a different ring when these are so good. Steel is real!
RF cinch mount is great. Easy to install, and makes use of that old ISIS BB tool you have rattling around in your toolbox.
Can't fault it.

Great product, good value and easy to install
0 chain drops, quite, smooth
by Alex
Does exactly what it says. I went the round option in steel, nice and cheap, a little heavy but honestly don't notice the difference to the lighter one it replaced. Being steel it will probably last longer any way.

Bought a steel one of these to replace an alloy ring as I seem to only be getting around 600km out of them and the expense of replacing them is way too high.
Ring looks really good, the graphics do not match the picture here, but they are much nicer and low key.
Ring is nice and smooth, but you do get a little surface rust on the teeth after wet rides. It is totally fine, but I am just not used to seeing it after riding alloy rings for so long.
Fast service and delivery, correct
