I have just changed to 144bcd and my new bike comes with a 48T Sugino ZEN chainring.
I would like to get 49T and 50T, although I think I'll mostly be using the 48T, so was happy to pay a bit extra for that.
However, I might well want 49T and 50T too, but don't want to break the bank (already broken, sadly...!). I've read a bit about some makes really not being up to scratch - not sufficiently round, not properly centred, etc.
I see that Miche, Token, Genetic, Stronglight, TA and others all make decent "looking" chainring for something between £25 and £50. Can anyone recommend one that's going to be good?
In fact are the Sugino 75 and Sugino really that much better (and worth saving up for)?
Alternatively, does anyone have a really good (quality and condition) used 49T/50T that they're willing to part with for an appropriate fee?
Thanks
Jobs.
