I need to replace the chainrings on a 2011 Rockhopper. Can anyone recommend a set of replacement rings? Since I will be replacing them I wouldn't mind upgrading if that is possible.
Thanks

Probably cheaper to replace entire crankset than just chainrings. Look for some model number stamps on them somewhere. Base model 'hopper has some sort of SR Suntour cranks.

Upgrades might be possible, but if you chew through them once a year it might get expensive as some expensive ones wear more quickly than some cheap ones.
