Fuel/Oil on wheel
Hi Guys
Whats the easiest way of getting rid of fuel on a tyre? My back wheel looks glossy it has so much fuel on it from the previous owner running it to rich...?
Thanks

None at all. Don't soak the wheel in it, keep the denatured alcohol away from the bearings or it'll contaminate the grease in them. Just use a brush and brush the wheel with it, then use compressed air to evaporate the denatured alcohol and remove the dust.
Sounds like a Maxx with sidepipe?
