It shouldn't be a problem on bike components as long as you rinse it and chase the water off as suggested above. For clothes, I found that all I had to do was to scrub the spot a little with a brush and then wash. I even let it dry out first (in Tucson so I knew it was "dry") and it still worked like a treat.
