Superstar do a 'full'(ie upper guide plus lower roller) chain device for £35, okay so its not DH race bike weight but its pretty cheap compared to pretty much everything else
The bike will need ISCG/ISCG03, ISCG05 or a Bottom Bracket mounting though
So if the frame doesn't have 3 bolt mountings, or an external type bottom bracket bearing cups, then you'll have to get a special chain device type bottom bracket, or if the frame has a 68mm bottom bracket shell you can use a 73mm bottom bracket, stick the chain device on one side and add an external bottom bracket 2.5mm spacer on the other
There are loads of other ways, but if the bike is for jumping etc then it maybe that a full chain device maybe best
Other solutions include:
Front mech with low limit screw wound out and clamped so it sits low to chainring
Bash guard + inner bash ring (~£16* + ~£28**)
Bash guard + N gear jump stop (~£16* + ~£10)
Pauls components Chain Keeper (I think its called that) (~£50?)
Rohloff Chain Guide (~£50)
MRP 1x/e13 XCX top guides (~£40)
there must be more
*eg FSA polycarbonate on CRC
**eg blackspire on CRC
You have got the correct length chain haven't you? round the biggest 2 rings (only got the one at the front) plus one pair of links overlap
