Road Bike Chainrings Set 2x12 speed Round for 110 BCD Shimano Asymmetric with Aero Cover R9200 8100 7100
Recently I pick up these aero 50-34t chainrings because my Shimano chainrings were too outboard causing very minor FD rub. Good shifting and less outboard positioning on the crankset. The teeth were slightly more taller, so I needed to raise my FD by about 1-2mm. Besides that, they're solid.

ICAN A54
The ICAN A54 is a new aero road frameset from ICAN, featuring a full carbon frame with T47 bottom bracket, UDH (Universal Derailleur Hanger), and FSA ACR headset. It offers 35mm tire clearance and is available in sizes XS to XL. The frame is priced at $730 USD for frame, fork, headset, and seatpost. Users note its similarity to other frames like the XM CarbonSpeed VRT and Scott Foil, and discuss the unusual seat tube angle and offset seatpost design, which may affect fit. Some praise its value and availability, while others criticize the outdated STA and limited size availability for larger riders.
Mondince FM376
The Mondince FM376 is a new gravel frame from Mondince, featuring 57mm tire clearance, a 27.2mm round seatpost, and internal downtube storage. It has a geometry similar to the Spcycle G028 and Canyon Grail. The frame is available in sizes S, M, etc., with options for custom paint and rivet removal. Users praise its quality, price, and features, but note some confusion about its classification and availability of certain sizes.
RYET RT06
So, I also tried the Ryet Aircode, RT03 and RT06s with 3D-printed cushioning. The Aircode and RT06 weren't for me in terms of fit; I rode the RT03 (style clone of Specialized Romin EVO Pro) for about three months. In general, all three are very good quality, and I would recommend them. For a while, I thought I needed a 3D-printed cushion. And it is comfortable indeed, but especially on longer rides, the 3D-printed top layer has some disadvantages. Namely, your bib tends to stick more to the saddle, which a) puts more stress on the bib fabric and b) creates more rubbing between the bib and your skin.
