I have one of these [url= http://merida-bikes.com/en_gb/bike/2013/204/Cross_Cyclo+Cross/Cyclo+Cross+4 ]click[/url].
I want to change the outer chainring from 46T to 50T. I am happy with the 36T.
Can I just put on a 50T ? I believe the chainset FSA Gossamer 46-36 Mega is 110BCD.
Can I put of one of these rings

Does anyone have any idea which will be lighter ?
2014 T6 Alloy or PRO CNC T6/AL7075 ?

Compact (which is what it is) is 110BC so pretty much any 110 bdc chainring should work.
The weight difference will be negligible. Especially on that bike that isn't going to be particularly light.
You'll have to adjust the front mech and might need to lengthen the chain.
