    You just need to get the tooth number right then you can get pretty much any. KCNC for bling, or just standard Shimano which is simple but works fine. IIRC CRC do them all.

    If you want to be sure, just take it to an LBS and they'll be able to get the right part for you. Some may even have one lying around.
