Debating the upgrade to 10 speed. Without dwelling too much on 9 speed vs 10 speed issue would the Shimano Zee rear mech cope with a 2 x 10 setup (probably 32/24 on my 29er)? Or is it only for the 1x10 brigade?

Or do I hang around for the Shadow+ version of the SLX...

Yup you need SLX or one of the others - Zee, like Saint is 1x10 only due to the very short cage.

Zee is identical to SLX, except that it is short-cage. There isn't a short-cage SLX for that reason. They're really part of the same range, just one has a 'cool' name.
