Rotor Q Rings: Anyone use them?

[itself]

TsPoet,

Glad you mentioned the Corsa, as I am thinking of installing them on my Aero....hmm, might be a nice thing to ask for my birthday!!

Did you install the same exact rings as what came on your Corsa?

Thanks for the input.

I didn't get the Q Rings, I went with the full-blown Rotor cranks after I had my knee scoped.

I like 'em. I feel my power, as wimpy as it is, is evened out and my knee doesn't complain. My knee surgeon approved, too. As for speed, um, I'm not much of a speed demon without gravity assist, so I really can't help on that. I also got very low gearing, as I'm kind of heavy, and have loaded touring plans. No race gearing for this old girl.

I also went with 165 cranks, just to keep the knees happy. I don't regret that, either.

The bike is a Sun EZ Sport, which suits me down to the ground.

Been so long, not sure I remember. I have 155 mm crank arms, and the big ring is ~55, bigger than the stock. I never noticed any additional effort from the "larger" Q-rings, which makes sense since they are not larger in the "dead" area. The PR on the Rotor site says to go up some, or used to anyway.
