Comments about Park Chain Gang Cleaning Kit:

There are some nice things about this kit and some not so nice things about this kit. The nice things are that the system cleans your chain very nicely and easily. You can also use the cleaning fluid for other greasy stuff on your bike and it works like a charm.

The problems are that the cleaning fluid bottle is horrible. I store it in my tool kit lying down and it leaks like crazy (covering all my tools in the stuff). Also the actual chain cleaning tool has some pieces of foam which tend to come fall off.

Best Uses

Comments about Park Chain Gang Cleaning Kit:

I found the plastic to be stress crack sensitive to paint thinner and citrus solvents. The body and clamp lever notches cracked after a couple of uses. Stick to the solvent Park supplies (or maybe detergent and water?) Functionally, this is the best chain cleaning tool I have used. If only they had made a more careful choice of plastic it would be a total winner. The handle wedges into its slot and seems to make the problem worse. Also, it tends to spill the solvent but practice using it will cure this.

Comments about Park Chain Gang Cleaning Kit:

For the price it is a good deal. Works very well and very quickly. Only drawback is it is very messy. I use it to clean my mountain bike chain. Gets the job done in less than a minute after mounting it on the chain.

Comments about Park Chain Gang Cleaning Kit:

First chain cleaner I have purchased and now I'm looking into others. At first it worked great but after a year the plastic piece holding the magnet in place broke, then the metal clips came loose and now wont stay on unless they are in the locked position. Ended up loosing a clip and the magnet. Maybe I was too rough on it, dunno but not going to buy it again, would rather take the time with a rag or removing the chain.

Comments about Park Chain Gang Cleaning Kit:

I take great care to clean my chain whenever it gets dirty. Typically I remove the chain with a quick link, soak it in some cleaner and scrub. Works the best but is time consuming. I have used this cleaner 4 times since purchasing it, and am impressed how well it cleans. You can use any citrus degreaser or dish soap to clean the chain; note that you might have to change the fluid 2-3 times if very dirty. Another great feature is the magnet that sits in the reservoir. I'll still take off the chain and soak if the chain is very dirty but for inbetween cleanings this is perfect.
