Not really specific to CAMO (which I am about to order and elliptical SS chain rings) but for information. I ran a SRAM XX1 Eagle Gold chain on an XG-1299 Gold cassette driven by a One Up Components 30T elliptical chain ring. After 1400 km the cassette is barely worn, the chain has just passed 0.5 so it is being replaced with a new chain, but the most significant and most obvious wear was on the aluminium chain ring which is chamfered totally smooth on the outside of the teeth. The NW teeth are not hooked like the old '90 chain rings and cassette cogs used to get (even with regular, twice yearly changes) but really worn laterally. I think the SS chain rings will definitely be an improvement in this area.
