Just been looking at the blingfest on another thread. Not overly impressed by the bling tbh, but really impressed by how clean some of the bikes are. Personally I rarely valet my bikes to showroom condition – generally a quick hose down with a bit extra care taken around the chain area and forks/shock. Every once-in-a-while i'll break out the WD and give the rest a bit of tlc, but looking at the tyres on some of the pics , I get the impression there a some closet OCDer's on here.
I used to get a bit silly with the polish when I had motorbikes but don't see the point on a mtb, as it'll be boggin' so soon. Anyone admit to cleaning too much or not enough?
