get that orange citrus cleaner, I think it doesn't smell as bad as simple green. for brushes you can find some at auto parts depts at Walmart etc, & even a grocery store cleaning dept, next to the mops. & yeah that gear brush (if you can call it that) is skinny to get between the cogs but you can fold a rag & slide it between the cogs. check a local bike shop too, they may something interesting on hand
