Chain cleaning?

So sunday will be zed cleaning day, my chain and sprocket are quite gunky from chain lube. Is the degreaser in the spraycans ok to use? Will it destroy the o rings in the chain? I thought it wouldnt but wanted to double check before I do anything and have to buy a new chain. I know petrol is a no go, or is it? Any other good ways of cleaning them?

Kero. I only know from asking the same question, and yes apparently degreaser is bad for o-rings.

Awesome, cheers for the quick reply, did you dilute the kero or straight from the bottle? Maybe I should search this topic haha, its too early to function...

Kero works best

Kero straight up, no need to dilute

I always use WD40 or equivalent and a toothbrush.
Spray blows most of the shit off too, saving you scrubbing time

What a difference, I couldnt wait so got in before our visitors arrived and cleaned the grime off, man it was terrible, cant believe I left it for so long just waiting for everything to dry and ill give it a good once over, thanks for the kero suggestion

Kero, paint brush, leave to dry and relube.

I tend to Kero the chain, wash the bike, let it all dry then relube. WD40 is very good at removing lube splatter, simply spray WD40 onto a cloth and wipe the lube splatter off. Great for under seat areas, rims, chain guards, huggers and under seat exhausts.
