Today comes one of the most videos demanded by all of you, the
cleaning the bike Do not forget subscribe to our YouTube channel
Mammoth world to always be up to date on the world of bic! i
Cleaning seems so important to us that we're going to post more than one video to
respect, and everything we tell you will work for any bike: road,
mountain, urban or walk. Without a doubt the one of mountain will be the most exposed to mud and
the dust, and therefore the one that maintenance will need. But have
present that for each and every one of the bikes it is important to take the
clean essential components for reduce wear and lengthen your life
Useful. In this first video we are going to show you how to do it if we do not have
of a suitable place to wet freely floor and wash the bike with
the water needed, or if we want to make a quick clean. If the bike only
It has dust, we can remove it from all its components using a cleaner
with rags or brushes, with patience and then proceed as we are going to
explain, but if it's about mud ever rub dry in the box and the
more sensitive parts to avoid scratches and wear.
But as the title of the video says, let's go to the essentials, the rest you can leave
for when you can use water. All right with a bucket or a hose. Of course, never
with high pressure. Starting with the part top of the bike, the first component
essential would be the bars and seals of the fork and the stem and retainer
rear shock absorber. If it is dry powder it will clean easily with a cloth or
soft brush, one old tooth can worth, if it is mud and in the absence of
water, we will have to remove it dry equally, but with a little more
careful not to scratch anything. The Anti-friction treatment of the bars
makes the clay does not adhere to the same shape as in the box and it is removed
much more easily. Do not worry. We will use a cloth
clean with a cleaner that is not aggressive for the plastics of the
overalls and seals and so on They will be like new.
If we do not do this maintenance with assiduity, this is what will come to
pass, and the solution is not cheap. We go to the transmission, which is the
most important component that we should Always carry clean, and the most
quick and effective easy to do it is with This clean chain of Park Tool, (CM5.2)
We will need a degreaser that we should try to make it biodegradable
to be able to eliminate it by the toilet without cause any problem We open it and
we take degreaser just to the line that marks us. Does not make
Need more.
We place it on the chain, we close ... we put the clicks
closing. We start pedaling back,
and in a minute we will have the chain unpolluted
And without having stained practically nothing. I do not know if you noticed that the
degreaser was transparent ... and look It also has a little detail that is
a mini magnet that you have here for if there some magnetic thing is left
totally down. We could also do it with a brush and degreaser
but it will take us much longer we will end up dirtying the floor and the
result will not be better, and what you we want to instill is the fast way and
effective to do it so that it never gives Lazy to do it at the moment
necessary according to dirt and mud that we go accumulating. We will also have to
clean cassette dishes and sheaves change. For the cassette we can do it
with the wheel on the bike but if we remove it will be much easier. We are going to
do it with this road wheel that we have disassembled here and that is
pretty dirty, especially in the mountains if there was a lot of dirt between the crowns,
there would be dry mud that we could use in our brush doing so.
To remove all the dry mud between Crowns
It's on the road and that does not happen here, what we're going to do is get wet
our brush in degreaser and start
to brush all the crowns. We have put the
plastic so that the dirty degreaser never fall on the rim, on
everything, of course, if we have brakes that go to rim.
We take a rag in this way what we put between the holes of the crowns
and we are spinning it,
so we will get out everything that is left and also,
we dry the degreaser. Look what a difference!
Look how the dirt has gone from cassette to the degreaser and we have
used very little. It is not necessary use a lot! of
desengrsante. We do the same with the sheave according to the
dirt they have, we will act in a way or another. As these are very
dirty we do the complete process. We take our brush, we wet it in
degreaser and we give him
to the sheaves. As we said before, if we have
brakes V Brake we must try not to we drop nothing dirty degreaser
on the rim. And now we take a rag like this ...
while we pedaled backwards to remove the crap from the two parts, from
the two sides of the sheave. You probably come better to engage
large pinion so that the rounds remain more free
at the time of accessing them for clean them
With the plate we do the same, depending of the amount of dirt you have,
Well, we will simply pass a cloth or we will do the whole process, it is
important to remove the chain to be able access the plate well. We do again
the same, we wet our brush in degreaser
and anoint the dish brushing it with our brush.
So we are softening all the dirt
and now with the rag, we go from inside to outside cleaning the
two sides of the plate until all the degreaser, that will go
with the rag. Do not forget to give it behind the crank because that's where more dirt gets
It usually stays. We only have to go back to put the chain and
Lubricate, but before lubricating, very important, we have to be sure of
that we have eliminated all the degreaser of the chain, of the
sheaves, and the plate. If we do not eliminate the degreaser when we throw the
lubricant, it will dilute it and it will not its function. When we are already sure of
that we have cleaned everything of degreaser, we have to lubricate with a lubricant
quality and appropriate to the conditions about which you are going to ride in the
next route.
Depending on how the route has been, if there was water, mud, etc ... we must also
check the brakes. If they are from disk we should clean: discs, clamp and pills. We can
do it simply with a rag or with some kind of brush. To get right to
the pills we will have to remove the wheel, and to clean the disc we use the same
Mammoth cleaner that we have used to the fork that is specific to
all these areas.
And if the bike has rim brakes already sean V Break in mountain or brakes
conventional It is also very important clean the braking track and the
shoes, to access the shoes what remove the wheel In these
parts if we had too much mud and too much dirt, there would be no choice
than using water with a good cleaner to eliminate all the mud, with this
we would have clean the essential parts of the bike to use it again without
risk of premature wear or breakdown. And without spending a single drop of water. In
next video, we will do it with water and with a deep cleaning. If it has
seemed interesting or you have learned something, we always thank you, I like it!
