Hi,
Really silly question, I have cleaned bikes since a very young age, but i'm scared to actually wash my road bike because I have a fear of damaging something. I don't have access to a hosepipe. I have literally a bucket, sponges, toothbrushes and some bicycle degreaser.
I have a fully carbon road bike, is there anything I can damage with water/need to watch out for? What areas are typically neglected by most people when cleaning their bikes?
Am I missing any essential cleaning products? I will of course lube up afterwards (the bike, that is).
Thanks,
Jon.
