i did a search in this forum. it says for washing the bike, not to use the hose. this is because of the pressure might cause the water to get into the bearings/pivots ect? i've got a rigid bike, 2002 kona scab. so would it be that serious?
i've been concentrating on cleaning the chain. i use degreaser spray to degrease the chain. but this drips down into the bb area, is that bad?? should i cover the bb area when i degrease the chain next?
how should i clean the headset area? just try to wipe off the dirt on the outside?
how about the cables and shifters/deraillers? i read that you use the tri-flow drip bottle. where do you drip into?
oh how about the hubs? i take the wheels off the frame and get rid of the junk on the quick release stick..
thanks!
