WD or similar takes any grime off the wheels a treat :)

Still half left and they are one of the best cleaning products I have ever used. Fantastic for cleaning bike between washes and can be used on all surfaces. Shift all the grease from wheels, bugs of screen etc and no harmful chemicals.
I use these wipes they're really good and they sell them at Motorcycle Magacity in Swindon.

I use water soluble de-greaser. Cut through it fine!
Re: crap sticking to wheels
With modern day power outputs, a shaft is the only way forward ;D ;D
And you won't end up with crap on your rim :o ;D
WD40 to loosen it up and SDoc100 gel to clean it all off would be my way to go......if I had that problem of course ;)
Re: crap sticking to wheels
WD 40 or GT 85 - both work well.

Not on the real men's bike's though ;D ;D :-* :P
Re: crap sticking to wheels
I wish my bike had a belt instead of a chain. No need for maintenance and if it goes wrong you just get another.
Must be the best option out there :)
Re: crap sticking to wheels
Im not so sure swanny, the belt on my trousers fails on a regular basis................ oops too much turkey!
