Park Tool CG-2.4 Chaingang Cleaning System Includes - Chain Scrubber / Gear Clean Brush / 8oz Bio ChainBrite Degreaser
It seems everything was simpler in 1956 and bicycles were no exception. A common day of repairs consisted of a few flat tires, a broken spoke and possibly a coaster brake hub overhaul. As the 1960s arrived, so did caliper brakes, shifting systems, and lightweight components. One problem surfaced along with these complicated new parts. No tools! My father, Howard, and his business partner, Art Engstrom, were both "hands on" guys, usually figuring problems out for themselves. Both were up to the challenge as they crafted their own problem solvers. Most of these early tools were built from scratch with whatever materials and leftovers they could find.
One of the first time-savers they invented was a stand that held the bike off the ground allowing easy, back saving access to any part of the bike. This original stand was put together using legs from a dining room table, an empty shell casing and a truck axle from a 37 Ford. As other shops, and eventually Schwinn Bicycle Company, saw the stand in action, requests were made for a production model. Park Tool Company was born!
The line grew quickly to include a wheel truing stand, more repair stands including a double arm shop version, wrenches gauges, fixtures and consumer tools soon joined the company's offerings. The retail side of the business also grew earning Top Ten Schwinn dealer status fifteen years in a row including number one overall in 1977. In the early 1980s all three retail shops were sold to concentrate on the tool business.
Our history says a lot about who we are and what we do. We still solve problems ourselves and we still insist on a "hands-on" philosophy of invention, testing, and production. The sixty employees of Park Tool take great pride in building the best bicycle tools in the world. Since that first stand, we've built hundreds of thousands more, reaching bike shops worldwide. Since the first hand tool, we've built millions more and our line now includes over 400 different items and a recent history of fifteen to twenty new product introduced each year.
Park Tool CG-2.4 Chaingang Cleaning System Includes - Chain Scrubber / Gear Clean Brush / 8oz Bio ChainBrite Degreaser
A dirty drivetrain causes poor shifting and unnecessary wear to expensive parts
The Chain Gang contains everything needed to quickly and easily clean the chain, freewheel cogs, and chainrings
The Chain Gang includes:
CM-5.3 CYCLONE™ CHAIN SCRUBBER
Clean bicycle chains quickly, easily, and effectively without the hassle and mess of removing the chain from the bike. The CM-5.3 uses an extra-large solvent reservoir and a series of four rotating brushes to get chains sparkling clean inside and out. A magnet at the bottom of the CM-5.3's solvent reservoir draws away particles scrubbed from the chain, effectively keeping them from being redistributed on the chain during cleaning. The durable sponge material draws solvent from the chain as it exits the CM-5.3, reducing drips and mess.
The CM-5.3 can handle any bike-specific chain, from wide 3/16" single-speed* to narrow 12 and 13-speed. A reversible handle allows the chain to pass through forwards or backwards for compatibility with center drive e-bikes.
CB-4 BIO CHAINBRITE
Park Tool CB-4 is a 100% biodegradable, natural, plant-based degreaser formulated for use in the CM-5.3 Cyclone Chain Scrubber, CM-25 Professional Chain Scrubber, or with a scrubbing brush as a general purpose degreaser. When used with a chain cleaner, CB-4 gets bicycle chains clean inside and out so they're good as new. Will not harm alloy, plastic, rubber, or carbon fiber parts, so it's safe to use for cleaning cassettes, chainrings, pulleys, or any other component that accumulates muck and grime.
GSC-1 GEARCLEAN™ BRUSH
The GSC-1 is specially designed to free your bicycle drivetrain from muck and grime. The comfortable handle features a contoured toothed end to reach dirt deep between the gears, and tough nylon bristles clean the derailleur and chain. Saves wear and tear on your chain and cassette. Also works great on derailleur pulleys, brakes, or other places where dirt collects.
