Think a chain keeper would make much difference if you don't have much mud clearance out back? Or perhaps it's just another thing likely to get snapped off?
I ask out of curiosity because @spotter dropped his chain two or three times this weekend on totally flat ground, despite running a narrow-wide Superstar components chain ring and a clutched rear derailleur.
Granted it was super muddy and very leafy, but my Inbred was trouble free running the same rear Nobby Nic tyre, same Zee rear derailleur, Hope narrow-wide ring up front. The only difference seemed to be clearance; I have tons whereas the Cannondale doesn't.
