Chain cleaning with hot water (boil)

Does this fit most of your cassette cogs in it as well? Struggling to find basket dimensions on all of them. Or I am blind :P

 

20.9 x 19.5 x 12.8 cm

 

Bigger than the others, but might not be big enough for those dinner plates on 11 / 12 speed drivetrains.

Thanks.

 

Yeah the dinner plates are the easier ones to clean by hand so no real issue :)

Appreciate it :)

Maybe have a look at gun shops as well. I think the Gun shops might be more robust and or durable. Safari Outdoor , 24/7 Hunter etc etc

That appears to be the unit size and not the basket size?

Agree.

An old toothbrush, some degreaser from work and I clean each cog separately. I use a combination of chain cleaning tool and toothbrush (on the bike, then off the bike for the last clean.

 

Chain rings are also removed and cleaned after every muddy ride, or rain (if road bike). Re-grease and reassemble.
