Because you ride them outside so much, bicycles are constantly exposed to moisture and air. And chemicals in rainwater, puddles and salty air all make your bike susceptible to rust.
A rusty bicycle doesn’t just look bad, it can seriously hinder your bike’s performance. A rusty bike chain can slow you down, stop bells from working, and rust can corrode the spokes, which if left unchecked can reduce the structural integrity of your bike.
Did you know you can remove rust from a bicycle by applying WD-40 Multi-Use Product? The smart straw helps you get right into the chain, and lets you access those tiny ball bearings. The regular spray can be used on larger areas like the wheel and frame. Simply spray it on, leave for about ten minutes, and wipe it down with a cloth. WD-40 is also great for temporary rust protection, so any area you’ve sprayed will help prevent further corrosion.
