Ultrasonic cleaning gets deep into your cycle chain and cassette that traditional methods can't reach. Cleaning cycle parts is quick, easy and very efficient. In simple terms, sound waves in the ultrasonic tank blast road dirt out of the cycle chain links. Place your parts in the tank, along with the cleaning solution and switch the tank on. 15 - 20 minutes later your chain and gears will be clean. The addition of the suitable cleaning solution breakdown oil and grease.
The most popular size of ultrasonic tank for cycle parts is 6 Ltr with digital controls for the cleaning cycle time and the water temperature. If you physically measure your parts, you might find that only need a small 3 Ltr machine. If your budget is a bit tight, you can always go for the 6 ltr with dial controls.

A quote from Road Cycling CC:
"I found it especially good on chains, even removing dirt from between the links – so a relatively stiff chain going in is like new again when it comes out. I used this on an old chain that I hadn't cleaned in who knows how long and the difference between before and after was astounding".
