Buy a new cassette and chain. Run the shifters in friction. Been doing it off and on for 18 months. Works fine. I did it with 8-speed shifters.

thats what i thought thanks for the help...should i readjust the rear derailuer from scratch or just plug on the cassette and chain and micro adjust with? the barral adjusters from there

nope, don't need a new rear derr...the range is the same from the inner to outer limits. The indexing is done through the shifter. a 9spd front derr will work with 10 spd, but a 10 spd front derr has some trouble with 9 spd, although it can be made to work, just not that well.

I upgraded from 9-10 DA in both set-ups, sti & bar ends.
All you need is to upgrade your chain, cogs for the bar ends & add the sti for the drop bar set-up.
The DA9 rear & front derailleur work well in both situations.
In the bar ends, I only use friction which is okay since I switch wheelsets every now & then which needs micro adjusting often.
With the sti, I might miss a shift every rare now & then but otherwise, works fine.I am also happier with the dura 10 chain than an after market "lightweight" brand that broke of much much much sooner than advertised.
