I've tried many things to clean my wheels over the years: citrus cleaner, Mr Sheen, Disc Brake Cleaner, my 2-year old son, WD-40, good old elbow grease... with mixed results.

But today I tried these Big Wipes and they are the absolute bollocks. Removed chain fling with ease and got the baked in brake dust and road crud out of the paintwork.








A quick rinse down and they came up as new.

hang on - when did you procreate????


(Never tried Gunk?)

Bit pricey but if they are as good as that.....
Then you won't need different types of cleaning stuff like the spray on wash off citrus stuff I use and then use wipes on the chain fling

Agreed, kinda pricey-looking. However, they work out at around 25p each but I used one to do both wheels, the rear sprocket and chain (and the rear wheel was hanging). I've had them sat in the garage for donkey's years and today I saw them and I thought I'd give them a go. Can't believe I never tried them before.

22 quid from Amazon? I'm sure I paid no more than half that from the Dulux trade centre in town. Never used them on my bike, but always have them to hand when I'm painting.

Good shout, I am sure you can find them cheaper. I found this from Travis Perkins:

You wipe your wheels down with your 2 year old son? Isn't he a bit big to get into all the nooks and crannies?

hehe, he can get ANYWHERE!
