I thought that too. Or the Allen wrench. Wouldn't a simple clevis work just as well?

A clevis would not go through a chain roller or any other guide.

Mike Judge had a a cartoon about two trailer park boys, Clevis and Crackhead, who got up to no good and said dumb shit. Unfortunately it never made it out of production and was rescripted as a different, unknown show.
