Which SLX front mech should I buy to use with an SLX dual/bash in a 2x10 config?
The M665 ( http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=28028 )
have a version specifically for 'double only' but it's description says 9sp
where as the the M660 ( http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=52924 ) which says it's a 10sp mech but doesn't specify that it's for a 2x ring set-up

SS,
Overseas working now but when I get back in a few weeks I'm doing a big conversion job 3x9 to 2x10
it'll be a 22-36 SLX up front, an 11-36 cassette, an XTR Shadow+ rear mech (which is the next question, medium or long cage?) and SLX or XT shifters.
Plus a Superstar Alexrims XCR Comp wheelset & dropper seatpost
It'll be the wrong side of £650 for all that but the XC-AM conversion will be complete.
...so what front mech do I go for?
