Thank you for the advice! I didn’t want drop bars yet, I don’t think I’m ready for a full on road bike.
I read that the 30t chain ring is made of steel while the other chain rings are aluminum. I wanted to replace it with an aluminum ring because steel and aluminum make a "battery" of sorts when it's wet and can cause very quick corrosion Yes I know the frame is made of steel, but the chrome molly should be resistant enough that I don’t have to worry about it.
