Hello all, I need to replace the big chainring on my venerable 2010 Allez Comp , and I was wondering if it's a case of just getting the latest, up to date 105 ring and chain?

Do I need to think about replacing the cassette/jockey wheels/small ring?
Thanks for any help.
Usually you need to replace the cassette and chain.
Chainring tend not to be necessary unless it's obviously worn out.
If the teeth of the chainring look very sharp, then that's a sign it may need changing.
If it look rounded, you don't need to change it;
Small ring don't need changing if you rarely use it.
