110/74 rings are widely available and I like the chain ring combos a lot. If you're running 9, 10, or 11 on the back (this is a modern build right?), then you'll have a heck of a good high gear (a 48 or a 46 running on an 11) and a good low (24 up front running on whatever you like on the rear). My rando/light touring build as a 46-36-24 triple and an 11-25 on the rear.
