Yeah, I can see that being an issue. I wasn't sure when looking at the pictures but had a slight fear that might be the case.

Are those the Stone's you mentioned?

Unfortunately, the seller states themselves that do not work for SRAM AXS flat top chains ...

Yep those are the ones. they have a few more designs too and some with narrow wide teeth but i believe they add unecessary friction and dont provide any benefit for me(my chain never drops at the derailleur). but yes, all are not compatible with Sram flat top chains.

I considered the Fovno ones too but they just too ugly in my opinion

I ended up buying a set of the solid Stone wheels after my $3 ZTTO wheel seized up after maybe 800km

You called for Delrin not for the price

"Delrin" is not an anticancer pill, it's a very common resin type called POM that cost +- 2000$ per tonne (plastic pellet) that is 2x compared to a "normal plastic" (Polipropylene or Poliethilene) rated 800/900$ per tonne
