best value in a track chainring
i have used fsa track chainrings for the past few years and have had zero issues.
i am looking to replace my drivetrain soon and was just wondering if anyone knew of a cheaper (yet decent quality) chainring.
the fsa looks to be just over 60 bucks for a 45t.
anyone have suggestions for something a little cheaper maybe?
thanks!

Not Track per sé, but I have one of these and the stiffness and general beef of it has been noticeable. Of course I found mine for $15 in a closeout bin.

don't older (or even current dura-ace cranks have a slightly different bcd. i did buy a 46t really nice sugino at a swapmeet once thinking it was 144 but it is slightly different. i showed it to a friend and he said it was probably the old dura-ace bcd?
if anyone has old dura-ace track cranks and wants to trade; i'd gladly trade for a 144bcd ring of equal quality.
