How about stiffness, I might get fat or something?
If the chainrings are really an option then I'd save a considerable sum over buying a new chainset.I want to believe!
You don't put out enough power to concern yourself with stiffness. #fuckingwhippet

got there first! faster than hippy!

Sneaky edit:
Assuming you didn't have any mechanicals owing to this setup?One was a crit bike, one was a TT bike.
I don't recall any gearing issues when racing that weren't a result of a crash or something stupid on my part. -

Also, "used to". Past tense. You don't any more or you don't ride 24s anymore?
The 52T is on a bike in Oz, so it only gets used when I go back and the 50T is back in storage as I'm riding shorter events now so the 53T is back on.

You going to keep answering questions once everyone's gone home there too?

So yeah, just buy a nice Shimano crankset and fit any of the Shimano chainrings you can buy separately and use a Shimano cassette and all will be well in the world.

^this. But with some SRAMs thrown in to the sentence for good measure.

it's unlikely you'll suddenly start pushing any material-property-challenging power

This is what I needed. Ta.

I LOVE GRIPSHIFT
Is that the same as coming out as a rollerblader to your friends and family? -

This is what I needed. Ta.
Only thing that I am wondering about is stiffness of rings and electronic front shifting- Di2 works best with stiffest of stiff rings.
Quite possibly not a concern of yours, but if you did go Campag EPS (afterall, what could possibly go wrong with Italian electronics?) then that might be something to think about.

I LOVE GRIPPING HIPPY'S FAT
That explains quite a lot. -

AndyP is here!
He might actually have something useful to say.
Of course, even if you do get fat(ter) it's unlikely you'll suddenly start pushing any material-property-challenging power. While rolling to the pub on your Boras.
