All fronts will be steel.

I used to subscribe to the theory that you should change chain and both sprockets at the same time, but I don't think that holds for the XT's (and probably big singles generally), because they are so hard on the front sprocket - even with a 15T

So this time I've changed the front sprocket early to see if it makes the chain and rear sprocket last a bit longer.
