Nice idea, but unlike a car, a bike is a bit more prone to water getting into important things.. A blanket power wash? Good god no, I'd rather have more control on where the high pressure water is being used..

Which raises the thought that if they've thought about that and reduced the pressure down, you'd probably be better off with a hose..
..which wont do the job very well and wont get rid of the 2 hour long cleaning session they mention... as all it does is clean, it doesnt protect or shine..so you might as well just go and see Nooj anyways..

I wouldn't be too worried about the water jets, they'll be OK on a fan setting like they appear to be, but there will be lots of bits of bike that remain dirty, behind the panniers, up under the rear end etc. Also what chemicals are used in it and what will they do to a bike's finish?

Looking at their "news" section it would appear that they have now parted company with the manufacturing company of the unit

So Not coming to a car park near you then .....................good idea though but as Kwakerz pointed out....there are so many hidden parts on a bike it could only ever do half a job
