So need some new cranks and toying with the idea of xx1 but building up to it slowly!

Will xx1 cranks work with a 10 speed rear cassette?

Also with a type 2 clutch will I need to run a bash guard?

Cheers in advance

Hi

Yes they do work with 10 speed and there is no need for chain device with clutch mech.

Yep XX1 with 10 speed is no problem. Ran one with Type 2 mech for a while with no issues.

As pointed out above, no need for a chain device with the XX1 chainring, HOWEVER, given the price of the chainrings (£70+) I would recommend a bash guard!

I fitted a chain device to mine purely for the bashguard and because I had a one already, but one of these would be the job if you haven't bought one already.
