Having a single on the front, and a derailleur on the rear, invariably gives me issues with the chain coming off. Even with a clutched derailleur (which are pretty good, if my XT one is any worthwhile experience.
And I could cope with a single up front. As long as my rear cassette is an 8-60t.
In fact, I'd want at least 10-50t with a double up front (34/54t with that).
