Assuming it's 5 bolt 110bcd, Hope retainer rings go as low as 34t in that bolt pattern, they're narrow/wide, so you could do away with the front chain guide, unless you ride particularly gnarly terrain, then leave it on.
Used Hope and Raceface, never had a problem with the chain dropping off. Some use off road, mainly on road, but still never had a problem (touch wood, not a euphemism).
