Hmm, but if I understand correctly, the TIagra 4700 is odd in that it's 4-arm 110mm BCD, and I'm having trouble figuring out what is compatible with it because most chainrings that I've seen are 5-arm except pricey 11-speed chainrings of the Ultegra/Dura-Ace level. Are there any decent, cheaper options?
