Nice vid Rob. You mentioned twice to use car shampoo without wax. Looks like there was Triple in yours:p

Thanks Rob, nice to see an alternative to Fork Juice, I'm onto that!

Still not had to clean my Levo other than a light wipe down, but then I'm very conservative when I use her...;)
 
How come you use the car shampoo instead of using the fenwicks for the whole bike?
 
Best thing I ever bought was a dog blower as it means I can dry every part of the bike thoroughly before lubing and putting away ?
 
Yeah I have one of these, and it give real peace of mind, especially as where I keep my bike isn't heated - also blasts a lot of crud out of the hard to get parts without having to resort to power washing.

 
I’ve transferred a lot of my motocross cleaning experience over to bicycles. I use...

- Jet wash with variable power lance on lowest setting. This is gentle enough to bash muck off while still protecting vulnerable areas.
- Rhino Goo MTB cleaner.
- Peaty’s foaming drivetrain cleaner.
- Fenwicks chain brush.
- Noodle mitt for frame, bars, forks, shock and wheels.
- Auto Finesse lambswool wheel brushes for delicate and hard to reach areas.
130psi compressor with trigger gun to blast off water before microfibre towelling down.
- Putoline Silicon Spray for cassette and chainring.
- Peaty’s Link Lube to lube chain.
- ACF50 for electrical contact protection.

I’ve been looking at these myself I do some work for a distributor of these I think I may have a chat when I’m working there next! ??
 
You only need the basic one - you can get cheaper versions on amazon that are dog dryers etc
 
I just bought a 50 litre compressor, that blows all the water away & any shit out of those hard too reach places
You can also blow your tyres up....try that with a dog blower/leaf blower ?

Ive got one of those, great bit of kit(y)
 
i would dilute the muc-off buy another ltr ..can be aggressive on some surfaces, plus you end up with twice as much, another good product is scottoiler fs360, just spray on bike and wipe off, there's a lot of good products that are ph neutral and not acid based so i would use those if possible
 
This kit is good as it's very soft lambswool... Woolly Trio

Especially good if you have a matt paint finish. The small brush gets into the gaps around rear shock linkages.
 
Been using the same stuff for decades. I use my moto bike cleaning methods on my ebike and acoustic bike.
Power washer for chain, soft sponge and simple green.
Air compressor to blow dry chain and tight areas, brake calipers.
Microfiber towel to finish off.
