I bent my second chain ring on my crank today. I found the one i need online. $27! So a few dollars more, i can get a whole crank set! The crank set I have now was around this price, and the ring costs only a few dollars less..

I am just going to buy another crankset, but a better one.

For comparison, as shipping may bump up your price considerably.
