I've got a stainless one form on-one, weighs about double what an aluminum one does (50g Vs 100g) but should last longer and be seriously tough. Or the lightest are things like e*13 G-ring or similar but they're designed to work with chain devices so probably wouldn't survive too many rock strikes unprotected.

[edit] best of using a 3/32" chain with whatever you get rather than a 1/8" BMX chain, most SS sprockets/chainrings are 3/32" but won't take a 9/10s chain.

[double edit] just realized !0 is meant to be 10? In which case ignore the above and get an e*13 chainring.

Don't think there is such a thing.

Any ring should work because the inner part of a 10 speed chain is the same size as a 9 speed, it's the outer plates that are thinner.

I use this one on my 1 x 10 setup:

Ahh, gotcha. Its for the misses orange 5 which she bought new a few months ago. Its for a double and bash set up 2 x 10.. the problem is that it wont shift up into the middle/outer ring up front and after lots of pi$$in around with the front mech iv come to the conclusion that the shifting pins/grooves are sh!te on her current chainring so im gonna get her a new one for xmas.
I think this should be ok but wasn't sure as the title says 8-9-10sp compatable but the discriptions only say 8-9 sp cpmpatable.
