Product Information
Full details
The Fenwicks Bike Cleaner 1 Litre is designed for cyclists who need an effective, yet safe, way to clean their bikes. Its key benefit is its ability to lift and remove dirt without harsh chemicals, suitable for all bike finishes. A potential consideration is that it's a ready-to-use solution, so for very heavy soiling, pre-soaking may be beneficial. This biodegradable cleaner encapsulates dirt for easy rinsing, works on various materials, and comes in a user-friendly trigger bottle.

FAQs
Is this cleaner safe for my carbon fiber bike?
Yes, Fenwicks Bike Cleaner is specifically formulated to be safe for all types of finishes, including carbon fiber, gloss, and matt.
Do I need to dilute this 1-litre bottle?
No, the 1-litre bottle is a ready-to-use formula. You do not need to dilute it before applying.
Can I use this cleaner on my disc brake rotors and pads?
It is not recommended to use this cleaner directly on brake rotors and pads, as any residue could potentially affect braking performance. Clean these components separately with a dedicated brake cleaner or appropriate solvent.
How should I store the Fenwicks Bike Cleaner?
Store the bottle in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Is this product eco-friendly?
Yes, Fenwicks Bike Cleaner is biodegradable and formulated without harsh solvents or acids, making it an environmentally conscious choice.
What is the best way to apply the cleaner for maximum effect?
Spray liberally onto the dirty areas, allow it to dwell for a short period (1-2 minutes) to attract dirt, agitate with a soft brush or sponge, and then rinse thoroughly with water.
Troubleshooting
Cleaner not spraying effectively.
Check if the trigger mechanism is properly attached to the bottle. Ensure the intake tube is submerged in the liquid. If the nozzle is blocked, rinse it under warm water.
Dirt is not easily rinsing away.
Allow the cleaner to dwell on the surface for an extra minute or two. Use a cleaning brush or sponge to agitate stubborn dirt before rinsing. Ensure you are using sufficient water pressure for rinsing.
Product left white residue after drying.
This can happen if the bike was not rinsed thoroughly. Ensure all product is washed away with clean water. For future use, rinse more comprehensively.
