Chainrings

Hi
I'm about to replace the drive train on my bike and was wondering if I need to change the front chainrings as a set or if I can get away with just the middle ring? The inner and outer are in pretty good condition.
If I don't replace them as a set do I have to use the same brand as they are, or are all brands compatable? Any advice on brand would be welcome, They are going to be bolted to a set of Raceface Evolve cranks on my Reign that gets most of it's use at Red Hill, Terrry Hills with the odd xc at Orimbah and 100k enduro. Not sure if that makes any differance.
Thanks
Trev

only should be fine. Big dog doesn't get a lot of work, so tends to last well unless you bash him on rocks.

She's copped a bit of a beating ( Red Hill and sloppy technic will do that Smiling ) but still in good nick. No chain suck on the big dog or granny.
