Been working on this for a couple of years. Just got it all the way done and my son is really enjoying riding around the neighborhood. The joining link on the chain has broken a couple of times so any ideas on what might be causing that are appreciated. Everything seems to be properly aligned...

Recently finished a kart for my son. Everything's working great but the chain keeps breaking right where the link with the clip joins the two ends of the chain. Nor sure if the clip is coming off or the that joining link is just failing. Everything seems to be in proper alignment and I have...
