I ran out of branded degreaser this weekend, so decided to try a bit of Cif kitchen spray in the chain cleaner. Never had better results, it was all shiney and new! It’s a quarter of the price of proper bike stuff and it’s always in the kitchen cupboard.

It says that is safe on all metals so have I been missing a trick for all these years, or will it melt my bike!

or will it melt my bike!

Probably not, just sit in your links and deflect any chain lube you put on – just like any other non-petroleum based degreaser. 🙂
