Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

The chain drop to the inside can be stopped with a "chain watcher". The Third Eye's Chain Watcher, N-Gear's jump Stop , Deda's Dog Fang and, most expensive, K-Edge's Chain Catcher will form a barrier inside the smaller chainring and keep the chain from derailing to the inside. They also help protect the frame from damage by the chain. Good insurance and even the pros use them.
