My big chainring on my new Galaxy looks spectacularly worn now I've cleaned the crud off it, so two questions.
1. This is spectacularly worn, rather than some sort of clever tooth shape to help shifting, right? I can't find high-res enough pictures of the Shimano RSX triple/a similar looking/era hyperdrive to check that it's not supposed to look like that
2. Any thoughts on where to find an equivalently sized compatible chainring? It's 46 teeth (if I counted right - I'm not very well so may be mistaken) and I can't seem to find a reasonably priced replacement with the same/similar number of teeth that's compatible with 7 speed.
Apologies for the noob questions - I've never had to replace a chainring before and it seems to be much more complicated than necessary!
