Nice save! We have those links on the tandem chains - all 2.5 of them. Didn't do us any good when we busted the timing chain. Yes, my burly legs broke the chain. We still need to carry a chain tool with us when we ride now, otherwise my wife would get to sit up front and steer/brake/shift, while I sat in back and pedalled us both home.
