| Product Description: | | | | | A dirty drivetrain causes poor shifting and unnecessary wear to expensive parts. The Chain Gang contains everything needed to quickly and easily clean the chain, freewheel cogs, and chainrings. The Chain Gang includes a CM-5 Chain Scrubber, a GSC-1 GearCleanŽ Brush, and an 8oz bottle of CB-2 Citrus Chain Brite. The CG-2 works on all derailleur bikes and many 3-speed and coaster brake bikes. | | | | The Park Tool CG-2 Chain Gang Chain Cleaning System allows you to easily keep your bicycle's derailleur and chain in the best possible working order. As bikes travel roads and trails, chains and chain lubricants attract dirt and grit that cause poor shifting and unnecessary wear to expensive parts. Dirt and grit on the chain eventually wear down the chain rivets, inner plates, and rear cogs. The Chain Gang System contains everything you need to quickly and easily clean the chain, freewheel cogs, and chainrings. Park Tool ChainBrite solvents break down the grit, making it smaller and easier to flush away with the CM-5 Chain Scrubber and GSC-1 GearClean Brush. The system weighs 1.3 pounds. | |

| | Being a newbie cyclist, it seemed that I was the only one on my pace line getting the tell tale tattoo (greasy black line on my inner right calf and on bad days, greasy smears all over my very cool cycling clothes (rendering them immediately UNCOOL). A gentle soul from farther up in the pace line put me on to the park tool chain gang chain cleaning system so I ordered it from Amazon as they had the best price. i followed the very easy directions to a t and in less than 10 minutes...viola! NO MORE NEWBIE TATtOOS! My chain, cogs and rings glistened. Coolness, restored.

| | PRODUCT: great product. park tool has always been very reliable when it comes to bike tools. the quality is high, its well made, and does not feel flimsy. all products included were as advertised.
USE: the trickiest part of setup, if you dont have a bike repair stand, is finding a good position for your bike while still being able to crank the chain. once i found a good position i snapped the product onto my chain with ease, filled it up with the cleaning fluid, and started cranking... first, be careful how you position the tool or you could knock the chain off the chainring, happened a couple times and made quite a mess considering i had to reposition the bike and eventially remove the product so i could re-route my chain. it does require a few refills of the cleaning fluid (depending how dirty your chain is) my chain was moderately dirty, so i ended up using 3/4 of the cleaner in the 3 refils i made. when you stop cranking the cleaning fluid will drip quite a bit so you want to do this in a designated service area (i.e. not on your wifes favorite rug). after you remove it i suggest wiping the excess fluid from effected areas and running your chain through a rag to soak up the excess. i also suggest spraying the product out with a hose after use as much sediment and gunk builds up in the resevoir and on the brushes.
OVERALL: satisfied. it got my chain cleaner than i could without it. after a long time of cleaning my chain without the proper tools its great to finally be able to get into the nooks and cranies of my chain. this product has made my maintenance routine easier and is a great invention for keeping your drive train clean.

| | All the brushes are replaceable and come out easily for cleaning/drying. My chain is always sparkling clean after cleaning with the CG-2. It even has a magnet on the bottom to catch metal shavings that come off the chain.
You have to be careful to hold the cleaner just right so the chain doesn't come off your front cog. And the included citrus cleaner is good for filling up the chain cleaner about 3 times - or one chain cleaning. Just get some cheap cleaner from HEB or Walmart or somewhere.
Overall this is the best thing to ever happen to my chains. Superb.

| | I think this is a wonderful product. It made cleaning my chain so much easier. It took a few minutes for me to get he hang of it, but once I did, it was a breeze to use. It cleaned my chain sparkling clean and then I lubed it up. It made a huge difference in the ride.

| | I've used this tool over the Spring, Summer and Fall and it has worked very well. You do need to be a bit gentle with the unit or you might damage the plastic - especially around the clips. Mine has some slight damage so I need to keep an eye on it as I rotate my chain so it doesn't pop open but it isn't a big deal. The chain comes out nice and shiny and I expect the tool to last for several more years.
