hey.
I'm wanting to up(down?)grade to 1x10 as I only ever seemt to use the middle ring and I wanna get rid of the gripshifters so I may as well.
I've picked out all the parts I need except for the chainring... I can't find a single (non-ramped) chainring to suit XT cranks that specifies that it is suited to 10 speed.
I like the look of this one: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=17741 but it says only for 3/32 8/9 speed. It also says it's 'only' 5mm thick.
Looking at 10sp chains, they're 5.88mm wide. whatever that means? inside/outside I don't know. Would that fit over a 5mm chainring?
any suggestions?
cheers.
