Climb Easier, Pedal Smoother
Based in London with production in Poland and raw materials from Germany, absoluteBLACK has developed a line of oval chainrings and other products to enhance your ride. Their rings are optimized to help smooth out your pedal stroke by reducing the effective gear size as you are hitting the dead zones (top and bottom). As you get into your power stroke, the oval causes the effective gear size to expand. All of this translates into smoother pedaling, better traction and improved climbing.
absoluteBLACK also makes disc rotors, hubs, chain catchers and guards, and a few other odds and ends.
