Its almost May and time to clean up the bike for spring. As far as I can tell from an initial clean the ACf-50 has done a superb job.

The truth is I’ve probably only ridden the Pan 20 or 30 times over winter so perhaps not quite the test I had hoped but, even so when compared to other untreated bikes I’ve owned and ridden over winter things look good.

After any salty winter wet rides, prehaps 10 or so, I let the bike cool and then splashed it off with a cold hose as normal (never use warm water - it disolves the salt granules more which seep into cracks more) . I’m happy to put the bike away wet and let it air dry in the garage or get it out wet for the next trip.

Next job - a proper clean and polish. (btw I’m using ACF on by bicycles from now on)
