Saturday, October 26, 2024 - Cleaned the bike & chain

After washing the bike, I put it on the bike stand to dry.

After the bike dried, used some cloth and cleaner to clean the entire bike by hand.

I've been using a "wet lube" on the chain and it get's very black with dirt.
It does stay "wet"/lubricated but the dirt stays trapped and tends to wear the metal parts out quicker than with a "dry" lube.

This is before cleaning.
I used some brake cleaner than a Park chain cleaning tool to clean the chain.
Then lubed the chain with a "dry" spray on lube.
