1, realize 10 speeds is referring to the back.. not the front

42 28 I expect is functionally a single ring with a bail out gear.. lower 2/3 of a triple

DS4 specs

i have a 52,42,26 triple from way before the external bearing thing took off.. and freewheels were 13t.
>42:11 is 3.8:1... 52:13 is 4:1< so 44t is as high with an 11 as a 52, with a 13..
specs are for a Sram crank , consider;
look for a Shimano, Trekking crankset BB and all ?

"Just putting on a bigger ring" I'd (also) suggest means putting a bigger inner chainring on too
(unless, as above, just adding 2 teeth)

to keep the 14t~16 gap.. that will be somewhat expensive.

[econ of scale] as bike factories buy whole truckloads of components ,

your buying 1 chain ring has all the distribution costs to cover.. on its own..

​​​​​​​ good luck, with your choice..
