The Reactor will take the slack out of the chain but it does float from side to side so you can shift gears and on a big enough hit can allow the chain to drop off. If you do not want to get new cranks then use the middle ring w/a bash guard on the out side. The easiest way to do this would be to get an MRP System 3

You will get a bashring and a guide but no inner plate which will save some weight. It should bolt right up to your current cranks. I have found some crants wont accept the bash guard with out a bit of filling but it is not much.
