i like the look of sora 3403 triple chainset, but it only has 1 aluminium chainring the rest are steel so i bought the tigra 4503 triple instead, because it said on the ribble site aluminium chainrings, it was 20 more exspensive then the sora but when i got it the small ring was steel, so now i should of got the sora.

    Noticed that as well on the Ribble site although they could say they're not lying because it does have Alu chainring(s). These sites all say the same so I guess it is just the spec they get off Shimano or whatever distributer sells them.

    I upgraded from Sora to Tiagra and couldn't have been happier with it. Felt it was much better in terms of shifting . Also the 2 outer rings are the same used on the 105 chainset.
