With its intense pine scent, Allpine Light is a biodegradable cleaner that will leave your bike clean and shiny. Its natural formula is very effective against dirt. For a light clean, just spray on and wipe away with a dry clean cloth. Not using extra water is efficient and also kind on ebikes with sensitive electronics. A light clean will not remove chain lubricant. For heavier dirt, spray on generously and leave for a few minutes. Allpine Light will break down the dirt naturally. Rinse off with water using a brush or sponge.Biodegradable cleanerKind to the environment1 litre bottle with trigger sprayIdeal for e-bikesNice pine scent
The Effetto Mariposa Mangiacatena Chain Cleaner is for quick and effective chain cleaning without the need to remove the chain from the bike, use a chain cleaning tool rather than simple brushes.Effective chain cleaning toolSix rotating brushes clean deep in to chainSturdy handleDual direction design, great on e-bikesReplacement brush kit availableWorks on 5 speed chains, up to 13 speedsMaximum chain width 9mmAlso suitable for single speed transmissionsThe Mangiacatena (Translation: Chain Eater) will thoroughly de-grease and clean the whole chain. It is the tool of its type to be equipped with lamellar (finned) elements at both ends, meaning the degreaser is contained when the chain is moved in either direction. This saves on degreaser, is less messy and very useful on many ebikes where only pedalling forwards moves the chain.Once the tool is assembled around the chain, degreaser is added to the fill level (Effetto Allpine Extra recommended). The chain follows a simple, low resistance path straight through Mangiacatena. First it is squeezed at both ends by the plastic fins then scrubbed clean by six rotating brushes which get soaked in the degreaser.For best results move the chain ten times through Mangiacatena with the tool installed below the Chainstay then repeat with it mounted above the Chainstay. Dispose of the dirty degreaser correctly then repeat the first stage but with water to rinse the chain and brushes. Finally dry the chain with a clean cloth before re-lubrication.
Effetto Mariposa Mangiacatena Chain CleanerThe Mangiacatena Chain Cleaner from Effetto Mariposa is a durable, efficient and fast acting chain cleaning device that scrubs deep into chain links. This high-performance chain cleaner thoroughly cleans all chain speeds, from single speed all the way up to 10, 11, 12 and 13-Speed chains.If you want to clean the chain in a thorough way and reduce the amount of degreasing liquid used, Mangiacatena is the one for you. It is the first chain cleaner equipped with lamellar elements at both ends, so that the chain can be cleaned by moving it in both directions, very useful also for electric bikes (E-Bikes). Equipped with six rotating brushes and a sturdy handle.Chain Cleaning with Minimum WasteThere is nothing wrong with cleaning the chain with the classic brush and solvent liquid in a tin. In that way, however, a lot of solvent is wasted without getting to a deep cleaning, unless you want to disassemble the chain and immerse it in the solvent. To avoid disassembly and clean in depth, we have developed Mangiacatena: the best cleaning with the least amount of solvent, in a short time, leaving the chain on the bike.Please Note: Reducing the amount of solvent used doesn't mean that cleaning takes place without getting dirty. Better to protect the floor with a cloth or work outside.Deep Cleaning FormulaThe chain runs straight inside Mangiacatena, squeezed at both ends between lamellar plastic (PE) elements with the task of keeping as much solvent inside as possible. The washing is performed by six rotating brushes, continuously soaked in the cleaning liquid, which actively remove dirt on each side, pushing the solvent inside the chain.Instructions for Use: Open Mangiacatena by removing the cover and positioning the lower part of Mangiacatena on the bottom span of the chain Mount the cover making sure it's perfectly aligned with the lower part, then slide the locking handle in place until it is fully engaged Add the degreasing liquid through the upper holes (it is recommended to use Effetto Mariposa Allpine Extra) until the lower tank is full to the “FILL” level line Keeping Mangiacatena in position with the side handle, pedal backwards for at least 10 full revolutions Note: the two lamellar elements at both ends reduce the waste of solvent, but slow down the sliding of the chain at least in the initial phase… so don't be afraid, just hold the Mangiacatena firmly Note: thanks to the lamellar elements, Mangiacatena allows - without wasting solvent - to pedal in both directions. To do this, it is recommended keeping the rear wheel of the bicycle off the ground (using a workshop stand or other support) It is now possible to move Mangiacatena: release the side locking handle by depressing the thumb lever and remove it, open the cover, disassemble Mangiacatena from the lower span of the chain and position it, as already described, on the upper span of the chain, for a second cleaning step. Add more degreaser if necessary Keeping Mangiacatena in position using the side handle, pedal backwards for at least 10 full revolutions Disassemble Mangiacatena and empty the liquid contained inside (dispose of in accordance with the law if you use non-biodegradable degreasers or lubricants) Water rinse: mount Mangiacatena on the lower span of the chain, add water through the top holes and make at least 10 full revolutions Disassemble Mangiacatena and empty the liquid contained inside (dispose of in accordance with the law if you use non-biodegradable degreasers or lubricants). Repeat from point 8 until perfect rinsing. At the end, rinse Mangiacatena with water and allow to air dry Dry the chain (rag, compressed air) and do not forget to lubricate it (we recommend our ecological Flowerpower Wax lubricant) Effetto Mariposa have selected Mangiacatena materials and construction for a long life. They also provide a complete set of replacement brushes, Mangiacatena Replacement Kit, to replace what you wear without having to throw everything away. They have also chosen to use lamellar PE elements at both ends, instead of the more common sponges, for their greater durability and resistanceFor Single-Speed Transmissions and 5 to 13 Speed ShainsThe chain runs straight inside Mangiacatena, instead of following a tortuous path, making it also suitable for single-speed transmissions (for a chain with a maximum width of 9 mm). No problem for traditional 5 to 13 speed chains.Features: The best way to clean the chain with minimum consumption of degreasing liquid The lamellar elements at both ends retain dirt and liquid inside Mangiacatena, while the six rotating brushes - continuously wet with degreaser - also act mechanically on the chain It can be used both on the lower and upper part of the chain, pedaling in both directions Degreasing liquid or water can be added from above, without the need to open Mangiacatena Made of shockproof and solvent resistant plastic. It can be refurbished with the appropriate replacement brush kit It works with single-speed transmissions (maximum chain width: 9 mm) and 5 to 13 speed chains Buy Effetto Mariposa Workshop from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

It includes all brushes and the two lamellar elements, and it is easy to assemble for prolonged service life. This kit allows you to replace the parts subject to normal wear of Mangiacatena, extending its lifespan. Replacing the brushes inside the Mangiacatena is very simple.
