However as the chainset doesn't have any groupset branding, I'd just buy new black chainrings.
I'm sure the inner won't have any wear, it'll just be the Outer.
I presume you've changed the chain and cassette, as its odd for the front to do this.
Maybe the rear mech needs replacing, a bit of corrosion stopping it moving as freely as when it was new. They've caused me more issues than worn front chainrings, especially when used in the winter

Cheers Mav,
I have mostly 6800 components on the bike STIs, cassette, F&R Derailuers, & calipers. I have slowly upgraded bits as I got a few bargains on ebay when R8000 appeared on the scene. Only thing left to upgrade is the crankset. I will buy a new chain when I go to install said crank. I did check the chain and it does seem ok its not stretched too much as the chain tool doesn't drop in to the gaps.
Watching a few 6800 compacts on eBay all ending in a few days so hopefully get a bargain ;-0
