Thanks for the follow-up. I'm an 8-speed setup tops, testing out 9-speed on
a new build, so I've little experience with these chainrings myself.
I never asked compatibility questions about these chainrings when I took
over the inventory, but I'm guessing as they were made 15 years ago or so
Willow chainrings were made around the time that 9-speed was starting to
appear, but Riv was years away from selling any 9-speed stuff. They may or may
not work depending on application, but they were developed for 5/6/7/8-speed
drivetrains.

This is *not* a complaint. This is a follow-up from my previous post
regarding use of Willow chainrings with 10-speed drivetrains.
I finally installed my 46T and 29T chainrings that I got from David on my
10-speed bike. They replaced a 48/34 combo as I wanted lower gears.
The 29T works fine
Bumping this up. Slowly lowering the discount until the end of the summer.
So, 20% off Willow chainrings now at treetop.bigcartel.com. Will probably
take 5% off per week or so. Use code WILLOW during checkout. If you forget
to put in the discount code, just contact me and I'll take care of it.
I just bought a tripleizer and granny ring (and forgot to use the sale
code..DOH!), and it works fine with the 9-speed chain on my Bike Friday.

I want to put in a good word for David and his rings. I ordered a few 46T
middle and 30T inner chainrings to have a lifetime supply for my Sugino OX
crank. The rings came in quickly, look really nice, and even seem to be
compatible with the 10-speed chains (disclaimer: test fit; did not ride).
Bumping this up. Sale will continue for another week, until August 17. I
had an unexpected hospitalization (appendicitis, nothing crazy), which put
me out of work for a week so far, unpaid as I'd used up all my time in an
(expected) paternity leave.
My wife is helping me get orders out, so
