Thinking about going to single chainring...

Hey guys,

Just got back rom riding around at a local school, doing stairs and what not. Then it hit me, I never shift out of my middle chainring. NOt just just for urban but even on trails. I rarely if ever go out of it. My GI in the 2nd ring is 26-76 which is perfect. But I have never ventured into the world of single chainrings and bashguards and what have you, so I your guy's help. Do I have to buy a new crankset? Or do I just take off the 1st and 3rd ring, and put on a bashguard? If so any reccemondations? If I have to buy a new crank set, any reccomendations? I ride a little urban, mainly trails, more technical than XC. Drops no more than 4 ft. The crankset I have now is what came stock on the bike, Truvativ FiveD w/ ISIS.

Thanks all,
Matt
