devocean Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 I've read that you can run a (Shimano) 11 speed chain with 10 speed chain rings no problem, but can't see anyone mention whether you can still use the 10speed front mech or would you need to get a 11 speed front mech? (I know you do need the 11spd rear mech)
MORNE Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 not entirely what you are asking i know , but FWIW I exclusively run 11 speed chains on my 10 speed drivetrain (MTB). It's quieter and shifts better than with a 10 speed chain.
