[Closed] CRC sale, should I get X0 or XTR 2x10 chainset...?

Any opinions out there on which to get?

Looking at the spider, it looks like getting replacement rings for X0 might be less of a pain. Also no idea what GXP is, will it fit in my normal Hope external BB?

Thanks, didn't know that, good to know that it'll fit if I go X0.

They're both odd BCDs, there are after market rings for both, so replacements isn't a massive issue either way.

I'd get XTR. Although I think the ratios are slightly better on SRAM, my XX rings didn't last. And XTR's lighter IIRC.

Weary of weird BCD having had an M960 chainset which was a pain. May hold on for the new XT with 104/64 BCD.
