The Carbon-Ti 46/33 AXS rings get credit for the ingenuity of fitting into the 110 BCD form factor but they shift terribly and wear quickly.

I just got new praxis buzz (with 12s compability printed on box) to replace my absolute black ovals.

Praxis 52/36: 144g
used AB ovals 50/34: 165g

Really surprised with praxis weight! I had short test on trainer and shifting seems much better than AB ovals

You must have got the special WW version. My Praxis Buzz 52/36 rings came in at 154g.

I wanted something closer to a standard crank and less teeth with a bigger cassette on the back so I ordered the Praxis Buzz 52, 36. Mine came in at 134 grams for the pair drop pin not included. These are going on a Red 11 speed crank. I do hope they shift well.

Praxis Buzz remain the only ring to this day I managed to bend in the first month of use. Warranty was refused, so they just went into the bin.

sorry to jump in on this, but are the CT2 rings these ones? I can't see the non-shimano style ones for a 4 bolt 110 BCD. Cheers!
