3Honestly, chainrings and cranksets (even dirt cheap ones) last a long time, provided you change your chain when worn. I don't think there's really anything that's a real threat to road riders; mountain bikers might bend a ring in a crash but that's luck of the draw anyway. Crank failure (usually closer to the pedal) does happen but its fairly rare.– BatmanCommented Dec 28, 2019 at 13:39

1"Corrosion resistance" compared to what? Alloys designed to be immersed in salt water for 100 years? Compounds for holding HF?– Andrew HenleCommented Dec 28, 2019 at 14:49

1If you are interested in the chainring's longevity, get yourself a steel one. Aluminum alloys do not rust, they oxidize. Stainless steel is also resistant to rust, and "non-stainless" steel, while rusting, will still be mostly fine for a long time. Unless you live near a salty ocean, that is.– Grigory RechistovCommented Dec 28, 2019 at 16:20

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. mountain-bike), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
