Product Description

Park Tool chain cleaner scrubbing a road bike chain

Park Tool CM-5.3 Cyclone Bicycle Chain Scrubber

The Park Tool CM-5.3 Cyclone Chain Scrubber cleans bicycle chains quickly, easily, and effectively — without the hassle and mess of removing the chain from the bike. The CM-5.3 uses an extra-large solvent reservoir and a series of rotating brushes to get chains sparkling clean. A magnet at the bottom of the Cyclone’s solvent reservoir draws particles scrubbed from the chain, effectively keeping them from being redistributed onto the chain during cleaning. The durable sponge material draws solvent from the chain as it exits the Cyclone, reducing drips and mess. The brushes and sponge of the CM-5.3 are replaceable (part # RBS-5).

Park Tool chain cleaner cleaning front drive electronic bike drivetrain

Compatible with e-bike systems

To make the CM-5.3 easy to control and use, we've added a reversible handle, allowing the chain to pass through in either direction for compatibility with center drive e-bikes. Compatible with all multi and single-speed bikes as well as both center and rear drive e-bikes.

This worked really well. I started off with some degreaser like simple green. Filled it up cycled the chain a few times and then dumped the liquid. Then fill it up with more degrease and repeated the step. Once again dumped the dirty fluid and moved to water with dawn soap in it. Did this a few more time and replaced the fluid once it turned black. Lastly I rinsed the chain with a garden hose so that it was 100% clean. The chain looked brand new at this point so this tool did it's jobs. This my be a little extreme but since I was adding a lube that requires a 100% clean chain this tool is a must. Was pretty surprised how nasty a ebike chain can get after 300 miles.
