dryer

Anyone got advice or opinions on these electric air blaster dryer things for removing surface water after washing bike ? Thanks all.

 

I just use my compressor to blast of the water. A leaf blower works well but a compressor takes up less space & has more uses.

 

Go on amazon and search for pet dryer, same product but half the price!

Or just fire up the bike and let it dry naturally.

 

i just fire the bike up for a few minutes,I've heard you have to be a bit careful with the dryers or you could end up blowing the moisture into the electrics

 

Weekly bike cleaning regime.
Wash it with cold water using Muc Off spray cleaner and a sponge, wash leather, polish the chrome and alloy bits then out for a spin.
I would rather be riding the bike than hair drying it!

 

Which one did you get? Is 2800 watt adequate?

 

I use my Makita petrol powered leaf blower, works great and stops it drying with loads of water marks if you live in a hard water area.
Anyone save filtered rain water for the final rinse?

 

Hi, Here in Australia we use a universal globally available product....! The SUN!

 

I usually wash mine when I buy them and at worst a damp cloth and polish there after.

I'll think you'll find that the SUN is not, in fact, universally available, especially in Scotland at this time of year !!!

 

Unfortunately not so globally available over here

 

True - but plenty of hot air coming from Nicola Sturgeon you could use Ron

PS - Not political honest- just funny me thinks please forgive me !!

 

i have the pet one £46 on e bay very impressed with it

Go to this thread I started Beanie - I've got one of the pet driers, brilliant piece of kit, blows all the standing water out of all the nooks and crannies.
