Chain compatability

Will a ten speed chain work with a nine speed cassette?

No

Salsa

Yes it does work fine, I & many others use the light weight KMC X10-SL chain with zero issues on a 9 speed cassette.

Yes, same as Salsa above, I was using an X10-SL with a 9-speed XT cassette.

Shaves a couple of g :P

Thanks all

I stand corrected. My view was based on the fact that the chains are of different widths.
