I’ve been using a cheap ebay ultrasonic cleaner to clean the drive chain (cassette and chain), on my carbon commuter bike for over a year now.
It’s been fantastic and I use it all the time, but is it something you should consider buying?
I’ll be going into detail around the ultrasonic cleaner I chose, the pros and cons, and whether you should pick one up yourself!
Got any questions or comments, stick them below 👇 and I'll try and get back to as many of you as I can!

I love cycling, and I love getting pro cycling kit for less. If it’s cheap, from China, and made of carbon fibre, I’m interested!
