If you manage to ride that without the brackets bending, the bike will lean like crazy when you try to turn. Single axis steering should have a single pivot point, but this ruins it. Could be quite fun, but you should learn how to weld. (Unless that sh**'s aluminum, which now that I think if it it probably is.)

Tangled chains can be a headache and take a bit of practice to be able to unravel consistently. The chain may have a master linkk on it somewhere that can be unpinned with a regular screwdriver so that it is not one continuous loop anymore. This would make it easier to straighten out. If it is a machine pressed chain and doesn't have a master link you might have to remove a pin with a hammer and nail on a vice in order to seperate it. This will leave the chain weaker than before when you put it back together though, so be careful.

They do make chain tools, but **** it we'll do it live

Or you could just steal one off some other kid's bike.

dont ever WD40 a chain unless its already junk, it ruins the shims and bearings between the links. Use chain lube.
