I'll be able to find out tomorrow for sure before I order the parts but if it turns out to be a 46 chainring what size cog would I be better off getting for the same as 48x17?
I'd still get the 17T. In fact on another bike, I have a 43x16, which is slightly less than 46x17 and I like it a lot. A 15T cog is going to give you a way too high gear for general street use.
