I like to wash my Klein more often than my car, it seems. The two tone, powder blue paint job is a beautiful sight. Looking at a messy drive train and greasy crank, makes me cranky.
So I wash my bikes about once a month. My question -it is not acceptable to have kick stands on really classy road bike.
It seems every time I wash my bike or change a flat on the road, I acquire another scratch. I see these scratches it really gauls me.
Does this just happen to all bikes as they age. Any thing with wheels will not remain stationary, even when you want them so. Do you have any luck in scratch prevention, when working on your bike.
