I'm speaking for Cam here, but what he meant was that the chain guide made it
difficult to get the chain back ON.
For my part the inclusion of the chain guide is a bit of a head scratcher. It
adds weight and cost, and many/most buyers don't need it, since only the most
aggressive descenders will be able to shake a chain off a narrow/wide ring +
clutch derailleur setup. In my opinion it would have been better to leave it
off, saving the average buyer some money. Racers or other riders who feel they
need a guide can add one later.
