03:59 PM roguish[m]: that's one of them thar single chain ring bikes. very nice.

04:04 PM roguish[m]: that's what I like for my chain.
04:05 PM roguish[m]: spray some on as you turn the cranks backwards, then wipe of the excess by holding a rag gently around the chain and turning the crank again.
04:23 PM JT-Shop: I'll check the cable outer pieces... it's been in the mud after all it's a mtb
04:23 PM JT-Shop: ah I have some T9
04:44 PM JT-Shop: no ultrasonic, what kind is good?

05:17 PM roguish[m]: this is what i'm using. borrowed from a friend. works pretty good though. https://www.harborfreight.com/25-liter-ultrasonic-cleaner-63256.html?_br_psugg_q=ultrasonic+cleaner
05:20 PM roguish[m]: a really good brand is Branson. look to ebay.
05:21 PM roguish[m]: pricey, but probably the best
05:25 PM JT-Shop: thanks, it's not the rear mech it's clean and moves smooth
05:36 PM JT-Shop: well maybe it was, after cleaning the rear mech an oiling it shifts up crisply now
