    Hi,

    Currently running a 2×9 with a double and bash – I will move to XT M8000 but would like to keep the SLX crank, because no need to upgrade

    What front ring should I replace it with, are there any chain-line issues to consider? Would anymore recommend the new Sun race cassette instead of the Shimano one – looks a bit friendlier on the freehub body to me?

    Sunrace MX8 casette

    Cheers, Alex

    Ben Pinnick s comments help.
    S’all too wide so you need to move the ring in. Absolute Black & Works Components c’rings have 2mm of spacing built in.
