Primary chain
From WikiPedalia
A tandem has at least two chains. The primary chain is the final drive chain that runs to the rear wheel, usually from the rear bottom bracket. The primary chain is similar to the chain on a solo bicycle.
In addition to the primary chain, a tandem will have one or more "timing" or "synch" chains, connecting the bottom brackets
