null
(Not my pic)

Currently 1x10, on adapted 3x crank.
We need to go back to 2x.
I've got the extra ring, bash and a spare xt shifter, that can be switched between 2x or 3x.

Will this be the correct front mech?

Matt - cancel the order I’ve a new xt front mech (double) and specific xt shifter.

You can have them. Just cover the post / donate something to a charity or STW.

We need to go back to 2x.

Dare one ask why such an apparent retrograde step is required? 😊

Don't forget that some are top or bottom pull and some do both..

I'd go side-swing on that. It's a much lighter action.
