I'll bet he's just having a laugh....had to zip-tie mine together like that to get the master link in....a real PITA.

I like his sense of humour posting it like that....the ziptie would break the moment he drops it off the stand.

DeeGee got the right answer. The guy was fitting a new chain.

Could go either way for me. He's clearly fitting a new chain but the cable tie is where the link pins would go so has he realised he doesn't know how to fit the link and is asking if he can ride to the garage like that to let them fit it?

I zip tie my chain when I fit it, but not like that. I go around the rollers and it makes fitting the link pin heaps easier.

I hope he's having a lend.
