Apologies if this has already been asked, but what's the best option for a 10-speed 11-40T cassette? Would be lovely if Shimano made an XT one but they don't, presumably because they want to sell me 11-speed.

Options seem to be:
- Butcher an XT cassette and add a range extender (expensive, messy?)
- Sunrace (Any good? Where to buy in UK?)
- Praxis (As above?)

Heh, your options appear to be spend a lot of money or spend a lot of money!

Personally I'd go lower on the chainring and put up with a 36. Means you can use a short cage mech, too.

I've already got a long cage XT mech on there. Don't fancy buying a £60 XT mech AND a £60 Hope range extender though.
