It might be the dust and dried dirt from a sunny ride across single track and trail-way, heavy gloppy mud or just grime spray from roads or cycleways. All guarantee one thing, once your ride is over your bike needs a clean and preparation before your next ride.
Now for some strange reason, I do not have a major issues with cleaning my bike after a ride, now that I have discovered the joys and simplicity of Muc Off!
Luckily and fortunately I was given my first Muc Off products as a present. It contain a set of brushes (x 4), sponge, Muc Off Bike Spray and the wonderfully bright pink Muc Off Nano Cleaner, all cleverly supplied in a black Muc Off case that doubles as a bucket, genius!
My routine when I return from a ride is as follows:
- Park bike and then give a general spray with water from the garden hose.
- Spray bike liberally with Muc Off Nano cleaner all over the bike - frame, wheels, tyres, disc brakes, forks, saddle, pedals, drive-train, gears etc.
- Go indoors and make a cup of tea
- Return to bike after drinking tea and then begin to scrub areas of my bike with the appropriate brush.
- Still be amazed how easy the dirt comes off after just spraying and leaving for about 10 minutes prior to scrubbing
- After scrubbing I then hose down a final time, before starting prep (chain, gears, frame, disc rotars etc) for my next ride.
I can not recommend Muc Off products highly enough. There are great value for money, do an amazing job and are also environmentally friendly.
Subsequently I have purchased further Muc Off products (which I will blog about shortly) including:
- Chain Doc
- Disc Brake Cleaner
- Chain Lube
