thanks, read a couple of reviews saying that the weight and stiffness difference is measurable between the two chain sets, and the bike has treated me nicely over the last 2.5 years (chains and cassettes regularly replaced) so don't feel any guilt at "splashing out" and have pulled the trigger, merlin have 10% off shimano at the moment so it was only a 33quid difference in the end, and feels like a treat rather than just a consumable purchase.

1) Yep
2) Might as well save money on buying a chainset - I don't think you'll have any compatibility issues with a 10sp chainring and an 11sp chain.
Happy to be proven wrong though - As I'm also going to be doing something similar soon...
