So i used to use Wiggle/CRC own brand cleaners and lubes and got on well with them, think they were called Mobi
Anyway as Wiggle/CRC are no more (well CRC are kinda still around but not like they were) i was taking a look on Tredz (aka Halfords) website and they now do their own range of bike cleaners, £4 for 1 litre, 5 litre concentrated cleaner for £10 , disc brake cleaner etc... all at resonable prices
Anyone been using them and how are they?
i've used the fenwicks concentrate https://www.merlincycles.com/fenwicks-fs1-bike-cleaner-concentrate-degreaser-48315.html
similiar price but makes 10L, although i reckon i make 7-8L many reviews
I bought some TFR the other day in a rush. When it arrived i discovered id bought the one with &wax. So that clearly can't go near the disc brakes. Damn my stupidity.

I've often used car wash'n'wax type products and never noticed any detrimental effect?
And I switched to muck-off this winter because I had several bottles in the garage that people bought me as stocking fillers and now my Dura-Ace calipers (rim brake) are sticking which I'm not sure is coincidence.
I'm sure generic car wash shampoo is actually the best option for bikes, and keep the degreaser to a minimum by spraying it onto a brush before scrubbing the cassette.
All MucOff stuff is garbage. Well, apart from their MO94 GT85 equivalent. Everything else is nonsense, particularly their lubes.
Cheers for all the replies but has anyone actually used the Tredz stuff as that what im interested in
Tredz = Halfords, so ask yourself if you'd buy halfords bike wash.

I wouldn't buy any bike wash, I don't think it's necessary, but I don't see any innate problem with Halfords products - if you were inferring this is?
OP - look at Weldtite TF2 All Weather lube as a general purpose option for cheaps. It's really good.
They do bike cleaners as well, but I've not tried those obvs.

I wasn't.
Muc-Off; great marketing, shit product. They don’t even make their pink cleaner themselves ffs.
Their lubes are particularly shit.
