If I wanted to go to 1x10, would any chain ring work up front or does it need to be 10sp chain compatible?

 

Any 8,9 or 10 speed chainring should work fine. A dedicated 1X8/9/10 chainring will give better wear and last longer though...

It's a large. Whyte only make them in 3 sizes. So there is a bit of overlap in the size curve. A bit more of a compact frame. I am 184cm tall to give you an idea of size.

Was there on Sunday afternoon. That was a Whyte E-120 XT that belongs to Eric from Van Gaalens. Third bike from left. 120mm trail bike.
