    if i buy these cranks would i need a chainguide as it doesn’t have a bash guard to stop the chain dropping?

    yes, though some will argue no….

    A simple lower roller will be good and easy either ICSG or behind the BB mounted – Black Spire Stinger is good value

    No.

    I use that setup as a double with no bashguard. I do use a double specific front mech though. Works perfectly.

    I can defiantly recommend the Stinger if you go for a chain device.

    I run a double crank and no chain guide. Nor do I have any problems with the chain coming off. Why are the XT ones “different”?
