The "over" in that statement is also significant. There's a study that came up with over 98% (I tend
to distrust claims that exceed 99%) in a significant portion of the instances. All of these were
with a system that was working properly. If something's not right, it can change the results
downwards.

130 won't fit. Modern Campagnolo road cranks require 135mm (and 74mm for triple inner ring).

Campag and Specialites TA make good quality compatible rings.

Read again. He doesn't have Campy cranks. He's worried about the chain fitting on the chainrings,
meant for his 130mm crank. I don't know whether there would be a problem using any standard rings,
but that is his question.

Are you asking if you can just swap out the Record 10 crankset and bottom bracket and replace it
with the generic carbon crankset that just happens to use 130 mm bcd chainrings and its matching
bottom bracket? Yes, many have reported on this forum about using other cranksets designed for 9
speed with a Campagnolo 10 speed chain and derailleurs and shifters. I doubt it makes much
difference what the tooth count between the chainrings is as long as its relatively normal. 10-12 or
so tooth difference. You will have to replace the bottom bracket because Campagnolo has its own
unique taper to the spindle flats and most everyone else making tapered bottom brackets makes them
fit the Shimano standard.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

The latest TA rings are designated "9/10 speed" so I expect they work as well with Campag 10-speed
as they do with 9sp - which is good, IME.

TA is a very good choice. I use the older 9 speed TA chainrings with Campy 10 speed, perfect
shifting. I wouldn't be surpised if the only difference between the 9 and 9/10 speed versions is the
labeling. I will use them as replacements for all my chainrings from now. They offer very good
quality, are available is several colors and sell at halve the price of the original Campy
chainrings.

my question is ,what would be the best 130 bcd chainrings to use to get good good shifting with
campy 10 spd? >><BR><BR>

Any higher end TA ring..we have as do others. '9s' or 10s, doesn't matter-

I use an Athena 8v crank with my 10v setup. Works like a champ. Any 8, 9, or 10 crankset will work.
