In saying that, I found that converting it to 2x10 wasn't worth it. I didn't need that many gears, and was just as happy with 2x5 with the same range.
For me, 10 speed components aren't cheap, a new chain is 40-50$, compared to a 5,6,7,8 speed chain for $10.
at the end of the day I found I'd rather keep it simple.
