How to re-lube and protect your bike post clean: Pro tips for best maintenance techniques

Cleaning your bike is only the first part of looking after it. What you do immediately post clean is just as important. Primarily water and moisture must be driven out from key components, especially moving parts such as derailleurs, pedals and so on, using a reputable water-dispersing lubricant. Leaving them untreated will inevitably lead to corrosion and problems further down the line. Of course the chain will need to be thoroughly dried and re-lubricated too. In this video we take you through all the key steps, and some crucial dos and don’ts for a quick and easy cleaning regime, to make sure your bike is always good to go for the next ride.
