Your bike deserves better! Give it a good wash to keep it in top condition.

Not as fun as cycling itself, but we've put together the perfect how-to to make it as enjoyable as possible for you. And on top of that, time-saving and easy too! A clean bike is a healthy bike, and that will save you money in the long run - so let's fly in.


1

Wash

Bathe shampoo and a rim glove will do wonders for your bike.

Scrubbing tyres

Immediate results and extends tyre life.

Easy spray-and-wipe protection so the mud just falls off after your next ride.

Call on a pro

Coat your bike to protect it for a year, ask a pro for help, or have your bike PPFed.


01 | Wash

3 ingredients for a smooth wash.

Bathe shampoo

pH-neutral and tremendously smooth - a dream to wash with. Fill a fresh bucket with water, add 20 pumps Bathe and mix thoroughly.


Your rim glove

Thanks to the thumb cutout of your WheelMitt, which was developed for car rims, you can quickly clean your frame because you can wash all sides at once.


Quick and easy drying

Avoid rusting chains and squeaky clutches by thoroughly drying - no quicker or better way than with this super-affordable BLO dryer.

Vergeet je stevige emmer niet


02 | Scrubbing tyres

Remove deep, stubborn mud.

Spray with tyre cleaner

Spray TireCleaner around the tyre, and then a few times on the TireBrush brush.


Scrub away the mud

And now: scrub - work in circular motions until you see all the dirt seeping out.


Rinse now!

Now rinse to reveal the clean, grey rubber. For an even sharper look, you can add some TireExpress use to make your tyres pitch-black.

03 | Protect

To make the next wash even easier.

Spray into a super soft cloth

Spray CeramicDetailer a few times on a super-soft microfibre cloth - ideal for application.


Spread across the frame

Spray, spread, swirl, take off, repeat. Choose your favourite soft microfibre cloth, no matter which one.


Enjoy weeks of protection

What do we mean by protection? CeramicDetailer, like other quick detailers or coatings, prevents dirt and oil from adhering to your paintwork. Result? Your bike is super easy to clean next time!

Any Quick Detailer can be used, CeramicDetailer is our favourite of the moment.



+ | BONUS - tip of the pro
