One teaspoon diluted with 1 part water is a great way to get your white bartape clean. What better way to look pro than to pose in front of the coffee shop with your spotless whites? *

I use Dr. B's soap after a messy winter ride, to get the rims spotlessly clean--no more elbow grease and alcohol needed. Just use a few tablespoons of this stuff in a bucket-full of warm water to wash your bike down and then use the leftovers to scrub all the grime off the rims. You will be amazed! *

Don't fear wearing your white kit on a rainy day. Handwash in the sink after your ride and look pro day-after-day--plus smell like peppermint, lavender, hemp, or your scent of choice. *
