Cleaned the bike

It's been a while since I last washed the bike (6 months?  more?).

dirt/stains on the downtube...

Coating of dust/dirt everywhere on the bike.
Been riding through quite a bit of sand...

Some areas of the frame are aluminum.
There's corrosion under the paint in places and the paint is bubbling.

A lot of dirt on the front brake caliper.

Dirt on the front edge of the fork.


Dirt on the headtube...

Dirt on the stem & bar

Rear brake caliper

Dirt on the rims...

Sprayed on a degreaser (simple green) then allowed for it to sit for a few minutes before washing the bike down with a hose.

Degreaser applied...



After hosing down, allowed the bike to dry.
