Question: will a 10 speed chain fit a 9 speed block ok?
S
I'd suggest NOT giving it a try. It is narrower than a 9 speed chain/cogs should be. I'd suggest selling it on, or giving it to some mate, or a local LBS.
Just out of curiosity which model is it (10 speed chains tend to be expensive)?
This is a decent 9 "speed" chain:

Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
