I'm not sure how 1114 routed the chains in the video, but we've dead spaced axles for the last 3 years (once using the kit frame) and haven't needed a tensioner. When using #35 Chain, if your axles and transmission are spaced using factors of 3/8" (3/8" is the pitch for #35 Chain) then you'll always end up using an even number of chain lengths.
