Spoke cleaning....

[blues n twos]

Mine were going rusty so I did a search on here and it seemed wire wool and wd40 was the key....

After about an hour of leisurely cleaning they came up like new I had even ordered some from Vines because I though they were knackered. Needn't have bothered.

So then I thought I would do the rest of the bike

Then I went out for a ride..... lurvely and dry and sunny

You would be suprised just how easy the wire wool cleans them up.

I had a go when I first got the bike with a cloth and Autosolve but never really got anywhere.

Give it a go......

Jesus, you must have been; a) extremely bored or b) have way to much spare time on your hands.

If you want to see obssesive take a look at Tarkas bike, I'm sure the muppet cleans the inside of his tyres

I'm sure the muppet cleans the inside of his tyres

only after he's ironed his curtains, polished the carpets, tidied everything into its box and hoovered his girlfreind.



.....and got angry about a thread in the wrong place on t'internet
