Looking to swap my 10x3 for a more suitable 10x2 setup on the Reed

I'm struggling to find anything for under about £50 though (in 38-26 flavour). What gives? Is it just inflation, or am I missing something? I'm sure I was able to get a decent set of 9sp triple rings for about £35 not that long ago.

It's for an X9 chainset.

    lack of spares I imagine, 10 speed is still pretty new so few manufacturers have had time to sort out cheap replacement rings. I've used 9 speed on my Mojo HD and maxlight with great effect, they work just fine. It depends how much you want to spend on rings, £50 is pretty standard for replacements. TA specialites make great rings, but if you want cheao, then I think CRC have alivio 38t rings for less than £15
