1x? 2x?
Best looking? Most aero?
Cheap? Any budget?
Shimano? 5 bolt?

2 x, focus on most aero/best quality, but good looks also wanted :)
Any budget
5 bolt

It's surprisingly difficult to find 2x aero chainrings. There are these Praxis ones for $200, but that just doesn't feel worth it to me. Depending on how much you're willing to change and if you don't have power in your crank/spider, the new Vision aero crankset looks amazing and is priced super reasonably. With the current 20% off coupon on FSA's site, it comes down to $208 before shipping/taxes. Pretty severe limitations of actual chainring size though

What BCD? 130 or 110?

130 BCD

When it comes to quality, my opinion is it's hard to beat Praxis. They shift so good. In my experience, they are a big improvement of the stock Sram rings and most other 3rd-party rings. They are as good as shimano.

I think the aero rings look good too.

Whether or not there are any aero gains, that's hard to say. But, they look fast and shift great.

I'm using this in a 58T, with 650c wheels. No shifting issues, and the white/black aesthetic matches my bike.

I'm running Rotor NoQ Aero rings. They are available in 110 and 130 BCD https://rotoramerica.com/...s/noq-aero-chainring

Stiff, true, and shift well.

Have you (or anyone else) tried Drag2zero's aero chainring? They say it's made to be optimized with a 1x set-up but can be used with 2x, they just don't guarantee the shifting quality.
