Fargo drivetrain Q's (2 x 10)

I'm converting my Vaya to 650B wheels so that I can rider wider tires. I'd also like to change the gearing to something more dirt-friendly (currently running 36/46 and 11-34).

How well does the 2 x 10 on the Fargo 2 work? I would expect that the 39t chainring would get used the most, but there are some climbs where I'd want to use the 2-3 largest cogs with the 26t chainring. How well do the Apex shifters handle the X7 front derailleur and 26/39 chainrings?

Thanks.
