Fenwick's Chain Cleaning Sponge
Fenwick's Chain Cleaning Sponge is a revolution in cleaning your chain, designed to be used with Foaming Chain Cleaner, it makes cleaning your chain quick, easy, mess free and you use a minute amount of product compared to any other method of cleaning - no waste!
Set your bike up so you can easily rotate the pedals backwards without it jumping gears (this prevents finger and knuckle injury by a spinning wheel), the best gear to use is a middle gear at the back and the small chainring at the front on a double and middle on a triple chainset.
Shake can of Foaming Chain Cleaner, rotate pedals at a good even pace and spray Foaming Chain Cleaner onto the chain at the point where the chain moves over the cassette. This is an art, if the foam falls off the chain for any reason don't worry you can pick it up and apply it with your fingers to the chain or cassette. You should see the chain being coated in the foam, it will also coat the rear derailler, you can easy move the foam around if it builds up in any one place by using your fingers.
Once the chain is fully coated, leave for a while for the foam to work on the chain grime. The foam will slowly dissolve as it works.
Attached the sponge to the chain by opening the v shaped slit and place over the chain.
Grip the sponge firmly, rotate the pedals for 30 seconds to a minute allowing the chain to pass through the sponge which will remove the grime from the chain.
Remove the sponge from the chain to see the grime collected in the sponge, the sponge can then be rinsed out using water.
Rinse the chain down with clean water and then relube with one of our Fenwick's lubes.
Only use the sponge on chain and tyres as it may scratch your frame and we wouldn't want that.
