Der Nachteil des Kettenreinigungsgeräts ist, dass das Lösungesmittel auch über Ritzel und Kettenblätter verteilt wird. Zudem müssen diese vermutlich auch gereinigt werdem, was einfacher ist, wenn die Kette demontiert wurde. Park Tool hat eine Kettenbürste (s. Bild rechts) im Angebot, mit der sich die Ritzel und die Zwischenräume reinigen lassen. | Der Nachteil des Kettenreinigungsgeräts ist, dass das Lösungesmittel auch über Ritzel und Kettenblätter verteilt wird.

It has to be a modern 4-unit chain, as Sheldon recommends, so liquids can easily flow through it. Take it off the bicycle, and first wash it in solvent in a bottle, with a toothbrush, whatever. Then coil it up so it makes a single layer in the bottom of an old stainless steel or aluminum frying pan. (Don't use a cast-iron skillet for this job: you would remove the layer of hardened oil that keeps it from rusting.) A 6-inch pan is big enough for a typical chain. Pour in a heavy concentration of dishwashing detergent in water, and boil the chain. Boiling will liquefy congealed lubricant and wash it out of the chain. If you're a real fanatic, turn the chain over and do this again with it lying on its other side. Spill the liquid out and repeat with clean rinse water. Spill that out and cook the chain dry in the bottom of the pan until the water boils out of it, so it doesn't rust. Then relubricate. This is a smelly procedure and you probably want to do it on a hot plate outdoors rather than on your kitchen stove. | It has to be a modern 4-unit chain, as Sheldon recommends, so liquids can easily flow through it.

Now, if you had that special grease which chain manufacturers use, you could heat it up in the pan and it would liquefy and flow into the chain links -- same idea as when waxing the chain.] | Now, if you had that special grease which chain manufacturers use, you could heat it up in the pan and it would liquefy and flow into the chain links -- same idea as when waxing the chain.]}} | ||
