FEATURES | - The CM-5 Cyclone Chain Scrubber uses an extra large solvent reservoir and a series of rotating brushes to get chains really clean
- A magnet at the bottom of the Cyclone¿s solvent reservoir draws particles scrubbed from the chain, effectively keeping them from being redistributed on the chain during cleaning.

- Works with all multi-speed bikes and some single-speed models.
- To make it easy to control and use, we¿ve even added a handle.

Park Cyclone by James A. Morales (Orange County, CA USA)  5 Stars
November 01, 2009
One of the best chain cleaners I've ever used. It was recommended by friends that've been in the bike business most of their lives. I'm a gadget guy and this thing is pretty cool that's for sure. Worth the money!!

Works fast, works well by Phil (San Jose, CA) 5 Stars
August 31, 2009
I bought this after too many years of brushes and other messy approaches to cleaning my chains. Half the time I wondered if it would be better to just buy a cheap new chain! But this gadget really works and I can say that unless Park Tool comes up with something better, I'll never use another cleaning method again. You just fill it full of whatever cleaning fluid you're using, spin the chain for something like 20-30 complete cycles, and you're done. Also, the magnet at the bottom picks up quite a bit of fine (power-like) metal gunk that you don't really see until you dump the cleaning fluid and wipe the inside clean. The "Chain Brite" fluid that comes with it works well; way better than dishwasher soap or some of the other suggestions I've seen as alternate cleaning fluids.

Here is Alternative Liquid You Can Use by Carter Hargrave (Tulsa, OK USA) 5 Stars
August 10, 2009
This chain cleaner is great. Seems very strudy as there is nothing loose moving around insdie that would indicate shoddy design or manufacture. All brushes roate smoothly. I am using Simple Green bio cleaner in this unit as it is half the price at least of the park chain cleaner and it works great. I just cleaned my wifes mountain bike (8 yrs old) never had the chain cleaned and it was gross. Took two cleanings but it is all clean now. My year old trek hybrid was no challenge at all for the Cyclone. I can also see where there would be no problem using another cleaner like 409 as well. Anything that will cut grease and doesnt eat plastic like a pertoleum solvent will be fine. Be sure and clean the Cclone after each use and it should last a long time. Great time saver and I hope this review helps.

This is great! by J. D. Garcia (Abilene Texas) 5 Stars

It is very easy to set up, use, and clean. After cleaning my chain with this (two minutes), the chain looked like new.

Works like a champ! by Bruce Erikson (Cincinnati, OH) 5 Stars
May 23, 2009
I purchased this unit in a bigger kit for about $35 and have used it six times so far. It works great. There's a bit of technique to getting to run the chain through and holding the device, but after your first time using its a joke. I clean my chain about every 4 rides- about 200 miles or so. This makes it real convenient by keeping the cleaner right on the chain as opposed to spraying onto your bike. The cleaner works really well too. Using a dry lube, it just comes right off. The majority of garbage on my chain is small pieces of trail: leaves, dirt, etc. nothing substantial, but I clean the chain much more often now that I own this. Though this is the only chain cleaning device I've owned I highly recommend it.
