I always wondered how those worked!!!!

The quality of the video is good though. Perhaps that is the lesson here. Steady camera, good lighting, good pace. SOOOO many videos we see, that could be so enlightening, as just so poorly planned and executed.

On stationary equipment you should also be aware of the direction you install the keeper the closed end should always be towards the forward direction of the chain movement. This helps to reduce the possibility of the keeper being stripped away should the side of the chain encounter an obstacle, On a motorcycle it is a different story the exposed part of the chain is retreating where it is most likely to encounter something as in an enduro or moto cross situation
