FSA Track Rings vs. Dura-Ace/Campy

Daniel Mendoza said:

I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether there is any difference in
quality/durability between a 52t track (1/8"😉 FSA ring versus a
Dura-Ace/Campy ring. I'm looking for this to be my main pursuit racing
gear (with a 14t). I've only had DA stuff on my track bike.

FSA's track 'rings retail for less than half the cost of Record Pista
or Dura-Ace track models. For the difference in price, one can expect
the premium models to generally offer somewhat greater accuracy in
lateral and concentric runout, more sophisticated tooth profiles to
facilitate smooth chain engagement together with better wear
associated with a harder alloy. I regard the FSA track 'rings to offer
solid value; you will need to determine for yourself if the
enhancements in other models justifies the cost difference for your
specific application.

Also can
anyone suggest a good place to buy those rings? Thanks for any help.

this writing, in the size/format you seek (52t, 3mm wide, for cranks
with 144 pcd), we have no fewer than five discrete options (Record
Pista, Dura-Ace, Sugino Zen, Sugino 75, FSA), all of which are in
stock. Take the scenic route through the site from the URL in the
