How to Clean and Maintain Your Mountain Bike: A Comprehensive Guide
To clean and maintain a mountain bike, start by removing the wheels and wiping down the frame with a damp cloth. Use a degreaser to remove dirt and grime from the chain, cassette, and derailleurs. Rinse the bike with water and dry it with a towel. Check for any loose or broken components and tighten or replace as needed. Lubricate the chain and other moving parts with bike-specific lubricant. Store in a dry place and repeat cleaning and maintenance regularly.
