Muc-Off

Let�s face it, cleaning dirt off your bike after a long ride isn�t fun, especially if you live in a walk up apartment with no yard or garage. But spraying this on, waiting a few minutes and hosing your bike off gets you 90-95 percent of the way to a shiny bike unless you�re doing a fair bit of off road riding. And even then, a light scrub with a soft brush more than does the trick. It�s super concentrated so you�re not using that much at any given time.

Muck Off rode the Team Sky train and emerged as a provider of various lubes, cleaners, and other bike maintenance products. I tried the Muck Off cleaner and it worked well, so the lube was worth a try on my new Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Di2. I did not strip the chain before applying (other than to wipe off most of the residue applied for shipment and storage. I applied a few drops along the chain and wiped off the excess. The chain has been quiet and skip-free. Chain wear is too early to tell, but I'm pretty fastidious about the drivetrain, so 10k miles on a DT is not unusual. The product is tick enough to be easy to apply and see as it spreads (too many lubes are so thin they drip off moments after application). Overall, a decent product.

This cleaner effectively removed grit and road grime without the toxic chemical smells you find with so many other products. I don't clean my bike as often as I should but when I used this product I had a very clean bike without a lot of brushing and scrubbing. Good stuff.

I have experienced terrible chaffing in the past and wasn't satisfied with the market-leading brand of chamois cream. I've found this to be superior, considerably thicker than the other and less likely to be diluted when you sweat. I like the product so much that I bought a tube for each of my buddies.
