The \u003cstrong\u003elight-coloured bristles\u003c\/strong\u003e make it easy to see when the brush is dirty and needs rinsing, and the \u003cstrong\u003ebright orange handle\u003c\/strong\u003e means it won't get lost in a busy workshop. The brush is designed specifically for wide-ratio cassettes found on road, gravel, and MTB drivetrains, and reaches into the tight spaces between sprockets that a standard brush can't access.

Use the brush to work between the sprockets, around the jockey wheels, and into the chainset teeth, using the stiff outer bristles to dislodge compacted grime. Rinse with water and repeat if needed.
