my 2009 5 has the standard 3x9 XT set up
planning a change to a twin and bash along with 10 speed on the rear.
Are the front chain wheels diffrent for a 10 speed chain?
And do I need a different front and rear mech?

    looked in the FAQs? try it. Chain wheels are "similar".

    one new mech is needed the other may be. it depends on how you do what you do.
