    - Points at running chain
    - Looks at camera

    That could have ended rather badly.

    Ha ha, I wondered how they were going to achieve that when I read the title. Chained to a pole to stop it moving, I feel cheated.

    Hmm, a chain moving at a zillion meters per second right by my nads. I'll pass thanks.

    Its a Christini they have been doing this for quite some time.

    With the chains covered LOL. Hasnt really taken off tho you'd think it would if it was a real advantage especially in Erzberg?

    There was an oil driven design also on a mx bike at one stage pumping oil through a impellor in the front hub.

    Yeh, the rest of it looked fucking sketchy too.

    Still, sketchy is not always a bad thing
