We wondered how bicycles, now increasingly sophisticated and demanding, are cleaned. To keep pace with technological innovations, it is necessary to use products that take into account increasingly delicate materials and that protect the most delicate parts of the bike without compromising its effectiveness. We therefore consulted Silvio Cravero, official dealer of the Klower brand to understand which materials are most suitable.
Klower Degreaser: 360°
The Klower Degreaser brand focuses on the most delicate and vulnerable bike components, especially if not treated with due care.
«We just left, It is a Slovenian company that produces Klower products in ItalyOur will is to provide valid ingredients that are capable of keep your bike clean and well lubricated. In fact, we offer high-quality detergents, degreasers, and lubricants," Silvio Cravero tells us.
A wide choice
Among the various products to use, the one that stands out is Bike Degreaser (in the opening photo), able to remove oily residues without leaving a trace. The following also deserves special attention: Cleaning the brakes with K1: a spray that removes dirt and dust from disc brake pads and classic braking systems, without damaging or corroding.
«The advantage of these products is authentic: no residue of any kind remains, not even the spray, by doing so, braking is not compromised, but rather improves significantly."
Multipurpose lubricants
«We prefer drip lubricant rather than spray lubricant because the advantage is that it doesn't mist.We also have lubricating sprays, but as I repeat, we don't rely too much on them."
In the list of lubricants there is the K5, capable of improving gear changes by reducing friction. It penetrates and protects the chain, and is also suitable for both mountain bikes and racing bikes. K2 lubricant instead it is multipurpose: it is suitable for the maintenance of nuts, bolts, and oxidized mechanisms of the vehicle; it prevents rust and corrosion on any metal.
Also for the e-Bike
«The product we offer – says Cravero – is the E-Bike Deagreser Spray, designed for the cleaning electric bikesIt can remove dirt with the great advantage of not damaging the bike's electrical components. This isn't easy because these are delicate components that, if handled incorrectly, can cause problems. For this reason, The E-Bike Degreaser Spray is of a high standard».
