Sounds like a solution to finding a replacement for that worn-out Zeus chainring with the unique Zeus bolt circle.

The prices for these rings sent my machinist friend into shock--he refuses to believe it would be possible to make only 1 ring, 100% custom, even for several times the price! (The pricelist is on the website.)

Chris can make really weird stuff like 8mm and 10mm pitch (i.e. the rare Dura Ace track stuff), in any configuration from 17 to 110 teeth. He's also got a clever system to make Shimano and Campy cassettes 100% compatible (not that any of us use that new junk).
