Works the way it is supposed too.

This is a very inexpensive tool, therefore it must handled with some care as it is only plastic. But if you use it properly it works very well.

Park Tool Failure

On: 2008-09-14

Ive owned three of these cleaners. They do a real nice job of cleaning the chain. The biggest problem I had with all three of the units is that they start to fall apart after only a few uses. Two of the units either the hinge point or latch point or both for the two metal clips break away leaving you unable to lock the top to the body. I only use the Park brand of chain cleaner. The third cleaner the actual cleaning brushes fell apart.

Ive ordered the Finish Line chain cleaner. Ill post a review of that product after I have used it for a period of time.

staying hydrated

These bottles are great to keep on hand at home, at work, on the road, and while out playing. I just ordered two more so I can have one with me everywhere. They are a great way to remind yourself to keep hydrated. The no leak top is nice. And being dishwasher safe is nice alternative to the bottle scrubber that can never quite reach the bottom of some bottles. I now own 4 of these and would buy more as soon as I figure out where else to stash one.

Probably the best chain scrubber I've used

As usual, this Park product has delivered. The Cyclone is well built and has stood up to many chain cleanings. This is my second one but I pretty much abused the first one as much as someone could and it took it well. Its very solid, it does a good job of cleaning and its easy to get replacement parts for it.

Works Great

Very effective chain cleaner. Probably not as good as taking your chain off but it does a hell of a job while keeping your chain on the bike. The biggest problem I had was trying to balance my bike while I used the chain cleaner. If you have someone hold the bike you can clean your chain in a flash. A little messy but what do you expect. Ive seen some people complain about it being easy to break but it seems pretty sturdy to me. All in all great product and great price.

Works great for the right price!

I am a bike novice, but still want to keep my bike clean. Even using "dry" lube, the chain still accumulates dirt and gunk. Although your chain will only be 90% clean, this scrubber will keep your hands clean. Because it gets so much gunk off your chain, you will need to change the fluid 1-2 times before the chain looks clean. The unit also disassembles well for cleaning (every part can come apart so keep track). Bottom line: it works quickly and cleanly and its inexpensive!
