Sirrus X 2.0 you are looking at, yes? If so, I wouldn't worry about it. There are two reasons some might be dropping their chains: the chainring might not have proper 1x teeth, and/or the rear derailleur does not have a clutch. The latter is a definite, according to the website, and is certainly one reason this is happening to folks.

Resolving either need not be particularly expensive: lots of clutched derailleurs out there that will solve that issue and are compatible. Same with affordable chainrings (if the stock crank will take a different ring) and/or cranksets. Consult your dealer for suggestions?
