I use them daily in work , I would say that if you want to clean seriously gunky parts then get a heated one . I tend to clean stuff with ISO or Acetone in work for delicate items , but there are limits to these things . If your gonna be throwing bike bits in there then you may be disapointed . Scrubbing brush and Jizer can sometimes be the best way to remove the worst , then use the Ultrasonics to get at the nitty gritty .

smaller cavitation so gets into more nooks and crannies which is better for digging into the grooves of records to get the much out of the bottom of the groove.

So for bike parts what sort of Hz range should I be looking at? Or would it not matter that much for my intended application as after all bikes don't sound to good on a turn table?

I use one. Just done all my blackbird jets with it. They were green as it'd been standing. 20 min later spotless
