My bike shop reckons that degreaser is bad news on a bicycle full stop - any
gets into the hubs, bb, etc and your looking at a not so pleasant ride
anymore.

Soap and water tends to work fine for me

Hi guys, I want to give my MTB a good clean this weekend, my question is,
can I just buy some cheap Degreaser and spray it everywhere, then hose it

Avoid doing this on the lawn......the degreaser will kill it
Cheers Andy




I use some "Bug Off" (windscreen washer bottle stuff) diluted with
water, cleans the bike up nicely. Stubborn grease etc comes off if you
use it undiluted on a rag.

Would this wreck any bearings it got into?
