Jockey wheel cleaning on mtb

[Catrin]

I want to try this stuff for the cassette and chainrings: http://www.finishlineusa.com/products/gear-floss.htm

Next time I place a bike stuff order, I'm going to add it to the list.

I have this, it is great for cleaning the cassette. I got it from my wish list for Christmas Washing is interesting, I am thinking about just tossing them in the washer next time but the pieces of "floss" are pretty short.

Oh yes, WHERE are you finding Simple Green locally? I refuse to pay shipping charges. I've been unable to find a local source but that probably just means I've not been looping at the right store...

I just take the chain off and swoosh it in a bottle with chain cleaner. I like the White Lightening spray cleaner for this as it evaporates totally from the chain so no rinsing/water is required. SRAM power-links are reusable and it gets it cleaner quicker than the tool. It works for me, my LBS wrenches converted me to this method.
