Jack - my apologies for my incomplete advice. I didn't see your "on the bike" pre-requisite. I will now promptly ignore it again! Sachs/SRAM chains with a powerlink are easy to put on and take off (for most folks - some people do have some trouble.) I take mine off every year and give it a very thorough cleaning. Outside of that, I wipe/oil/wipe. If you are going to get the most life out of your chain, wipe/oil/wipe and forget about the cleaning gizmos. -- Jonesy |
