I want to really look after my bikes in the future so I want to ask everyone on here a few questions.
What should I use to clean the bike after every ride or every other ride? Is warm water washing up liquid okay? Is warm water and soap okay? Do I really need to spend £20 on cleaning products? I know that it’s best to avoid using a hose.
If I get caught out in the rain or any other bad weather, once I get home home should I dry the bike with a tea towel or something?
How do I make sure my gears are properly indexed and avoid the gears from jumping? Is the latter a general wear and tear issue that needs to be fixed every now and then?
Thanks.
