Subject: RE: I admit it...I don't know how to clean the chain Unless you're a proficient bike mechanic, and it doesn't appear that you are ( no offense intended ), then I'd spend $20-$30 and get a chain cleaner from your local bike shop. It's a little gizmo that hangs from the rear derailleur with the chain strung through it. You freewheel the chain through a series of little brushes/cleaner and it does the trick. The same cleaner and a gear brush (yup they make a little thin brush just for cleaning the cassette ) will do the trick on your cassette. |
