Yes, you typically fill the scrubber's reservoir with a bike-specific degreaser or citrus-based cleaner, clip it onto the chain, and rotate the cranks backward so the chain runs through the brushes and cleaning fluid.

This is a simple, affordable tool that's ideal for home use, since regular chain cleaning is one of the easiest and most impactful things you can do yourself to extend drivetrain life and keep shifting smooth.

For regular commuting or weekend riding, cleaning the chain every few hundred kilometres or whenever it looks visibly dirty helps prevent premature wear on the chain, cassette, and chainrings; riders in dusty or wet conditions common across parts of India may want to clean more frequently.

Used as intended with the brushes and cleaning fluid, it's gentle on the chain; just avoid forcing the pedals too fast or letting the scrubber snag on a bent link, and always dry and re-lube the chain after cleaning.

It's a compact, single-piece (1pc) tool that just needs degreaser fluid added before use; no separate brushes or attachments are required.
