Hiya all, had a road bike now for a couple of months and just wondered if anyone could recommend a decent degreaser/cleaner & lube for my chain & chain rings.

Cheers, Sattsy

hey there sattsy
id go with muc off for a cleaner keep your degreaser separate id use citrus degreaser spray a good set of brushes to get in to the rings and cassette a chain bath to get all the shit out your links and after its been left to dry id use tf2 wet lube on the chain n tf2 spray on your mech's cables and any moveing parts also a top tip i picked up if u spray the tf2 on to a clean cloth none lint and give your frame a rub down u get a great shine!! it may cost a bit for a good cleaning kit but its cheaper then replaceing a chain crank n cassette every few months i got a 06 bike and only just had to replace them!!
