Strengths: 30 spins of the crank = shiny new chain!Weaknesses: stinks like every other mineral based cleaner. Leaves nasty stains if you spill grunged up cleaner on carpet, lino, concrete...Bottom Line: I used this stuff together with a cheap-assed $4 chain cleaner device on a pair of chains. It cleaned off the oil and mud on my new Jekyll no sweat. The Shimano chain on the Marin was about 10 years old and totally gunked up with oily dirt and crap (like molasses). 30 spins on the crank and you could see shiny grey on the chain (along with a few rust spots). Excellent chain cleaner, but i'd STRONGLY recommend you get a chain cleaning tool with those little brushes... this stuff looks nasty to try and scrub on by hand.

Strengths: Cleans very well. Doesn't mare the paint on aluminum or carbon fiber frames.Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: Great stuff when used with a cleaning tool so you don't need to break and remove the chain. It does a good job of removing grit and grim plus leave a little lubricant when it drys. Also can be used to degrease other parts off the bike. Any drips wipe right off the frame and I've never noticed any paint discoloration which was my big worry on a carbon fiber frame.

Strengths:
Cleans great!Weaknesses:
NoneBottom Line: I got the Park Chain Gang after my Pedros broke. I used the Chainbrite on a couple of chains, and got one of them absolutely clean (a first!). The other chain needs more cleaning, as it's a LOT dirtier. I'm really impressed with how well it cleaned.
And it's Biodegradable, which is good for mother earth.
