    I want to convert my mountain bike (Mongoose XR100) to a road bike. However, I don't get the desired
    speed with my current crankset and want to replace the outter chainring (48 tooth) by a larger one
    (52 tooth). What brands/models can I buy and how do I go about making sure that they are compatible
    with my inner chainrings, which don't need to be replaced. I don't use the bike very often, so a
    cheap replacement would be fine. My specs are:
    - Shifters: Shimano Revo RS-41
    - Derailleurs: Shimano C-050 Rapid Reverse
    - Crank: Aluminum alloy crank 28/38/48T
    - Freewheel: 11-28T

    Thanks for your help. Mig
