Non-standard chain usually how to clean and maintain

How to clean and maintain the non-standard chain usually, mainly from the following points:

  1. Do not use strong acid or alkaline cleaners (such as rust remover), because these chemicals will cause the chain to be damaged or even broken.

  2. Do not use chain washers with added solvents to clean the chain, as this type of cleaning will definitely damage the chain.

  3. Avoid the use of organic solvents such as stain remover, which not only damages the environment but also washes away the lubricant in the bearing area.

  4. Clean your chain after every ride, especially in rainy days and wet conditions.

  5. Take care to use a dry cloth to wipe the chain and its accessories.

  6. If necessary, use an old toothbrush to clean the gaps between the chain pieces.

  7. Don't forget to clean the front derailleur and rear derailleur guides as well.

  8. Use a brush to remove any dirt and grime that has built up between the chains, assisted by warm soapy water if necessary.
