So 8 speed XT cranks, 9 speed TA rings 44/30, 10 speed XT double FD, 10 speed XT double.
The max ring size is at the max the FD can handle, and the tooth difference is at the max 14. Even though the components stretch across a few generations in theory they should work together, but the up shifting is as smooth as Maggie Thatcher trying to flirt.
Any ideas?
