By Dave Delgado


If your bicycle has been rusty and dusty for some time, here is a step by step guide which will help you in get it seeking new as well as go super smooth.

So lets get started. very firstly let me tell you what all you will need: 1. Very hot water 2. Bucket 3. Old toothbrush 4. Sponges and brushes 5. washing liquid 6. Old Spoke 7. Chain lube 8. Grease 9. Polish or detailer 10. Rags 11. Flat blade Screwdriver 12. Degreaser

Steps for the clearing Procedure :- 1. Scrubbing the Chain The chain of the bicycle is one of the most important part in transmission. That is why your initially task is to clear it, for doing that you need hot water, but be careful with that (wearing rubber gloves will help). Add some washing up liquid in the water and permit some foam to form. Keep the chain in the biggest gear, and implement the mixture utilizing a scrubbing brush.

2. Degreasing the Chain After getting the chain dirt free, the next factor to do is apply a degreaser (try to use a biodegradable one) to the chain and wait for it to soak into the links. This will help in removing any residue or debris not visible to you. after you can wash it off utilizing clear water. 3. Wipe and lube the Chain Use a rag to wipe the chain until it is absolutely clear. And after this apply lube to the chain. working with a dripper bottle should be preferred to implement accurately and minimize wastage. Spin the cranks so that lube reaches into the hyperlinks.

4. Wiping and lubricating the Cables To expose the covered section of inner cable, slide the outer one. Wipe the whole inner cable utilizing a rag soaked in degreaser. If you see that the cable is rusty, it should be replaced. The next matter to do is to apply grease on it. To do so apply grease to a clear rag, and squeeze and drag it on the cable, so that grease gets into the strands of the cable, and does not form any blobs.

5. Scrubbing and Wiping the Mechs Don't neglect the front and rear mechs in your cleansing. They are often jammed with dry mud. Sometimes the rear mech may have some grass or an oily gunge; you can use a screwdriver to get rid of that. Use soapy water and an old toothbrush to quickly clean under the band. Now wipe the body of the mechs working with a rag.

6. cleaning and Lubricating the Jockey Wheels Now since most of the serious grime is gone, use a toothbrush and a little degreaser to scrub the jockey wheels. Next comes lubrication of the jockey wheels, although they require only a small amount of lube.

7. Scrubbing and Wiping the Rear Sprockets The rear sprockets often get very dirty and full of grass, mud and grease. Pick out the lumps with the help of a spoke or a screwdriver and then use the hot and soapy water with a brush and scrub it. After this use a rag to wipe it clear.
