And no that Campy ring pictured is not mine, I only used it as an example because I was at work and was unable to snap a pic of my actual chainring. The stock ring on my Lager was nowhere near as solid as that Campy one looks. Mine was/is paper thin and is still usable for sure but flimsy and damaged, plus I wanted to go 44T instead of the stock 46T, to bring me down to 69.3 gear inches for windy days and because my legs are weak little toothpicks and can't hang with 46/17 on long rides (especially on windy days, which we seem to get a lot of here in the windy city).

In related news, I used some of my wife's acetone and wiped the "FSA Vero" logos off my crank arms with ease. Problem solved. No new crank needed. Since I didn't go through with wasting a bunch of cash on a new crankset (All-City 612 was really calling my name), I decided to spend a little on a cog and lockring. Yup. I'm going to put them on my flip-flop and give FG a try. I'll be sure to stick to the beginners thread that's stickied in here (for those questions).
