Then I took a shot on the Stronglight rings and it was fantastic. I had been looking specifically for chainrings that would match the polished silver of the 7400 crank, so I was pretty happy to have both good shifts and looks.
Not with a budget around £50 - the OP needs chain rings, chain and cassette - it is definitely an all or nothing deal with the condition of his chain rings. Now with a budget around £150 - that is an entirely different matter.
