52 teeth Biopace rings are very common.

BTW, I have one beater bike set up as a fixed gear and use a Biopace ring. Sheldon writes that it will not substantially effect chain tension. On this particular set up (42x16) there is quite a bit of difference in chain tension as the ring goes around. I do ride it this way, but it really does not seem to be a good idea.
