Cleaning
Ok I gave the old girl a good old clean on Sunday (my god my back is now killing me, bent over for too long) and I could not get the oil/muck off of the back wheel, I used wheel cleaner, soap and water, I didnt try any white spirits or anything as they are Painted wheels and some of the paint has come off so I didnt want to use anything else that might harm the wheel.
But I still could not get the muck off, does anybody have any wise ideas on how I can shift the grim please, as the rest of the bik now looks sweeeeeet but the wheels look a little rough.

Re: Cleaning
usually just use Halfords wheel cleaner but if that doesn't shift it use Gunk engine cleaner .Don't know if that helps :)

Re: Cleaning
use the cheapest furniture polish you can buy, spray it straight onto a dirty wheel - wipe the crap straight off!!!!
wipes chain lube off like it was never there :D
