Source/Replacement for Shimano Tiagra FC-4403 chainrings?
I've got a 1988 Schwinn Letour with a Shimano Tiagra FC-4403 triple chainring (52/42/30) that's seen far too many miles and is showing its age. Finding replacement chainrings, however, is proving to be rather difficult. Does anyone know of either a source for original or after-market chainrings that will fit *OR* a recommendation for a comparable replacement? Hoping to spend less than $100. Thanks!

Any 130 BCD Triple chainring will do. Unlike modern Shimano cranks, this one uses the standard 5-bolt connection. You should be able to source FSA or newer Shimano chainrings for a reasonable price.

If the OP has never serviced the bottom bracket, he/she might want to look at replacing both bottom bracket and chainset. The more modern cranks can be less expensive than "hard-to-find" replacement rings. Just my $.12.
