How often do you folks clean your electric bikes, especially with winter aroudn the corner and the usual grit and grime on the roads ?

I try to clean it at least once a week with a clean cloth and a can of foam cleaner.

I usually try and give the bike a thorough clean on a Sunday (kids permitting!) , some more lube on the chain etc. (Flecc - did you find a solution to your problem in AtoB 56 ?)

If it has rained heavily I usually give the bike a quick wipe down to prevent any water seeping in anywhere it shouldn't!

I've had mine a few months and have cleaned it once so far. I suspect it's going to be a summer thing for me as I don;t want to go out in the cold and clean my bike.

Not often but then I don't ride it that much in this inclement weather. Living in the countryside, I can deliver all sorts of farmyard manure that collects under the botton bracket this time of the year:(

Hi
had my torq a couple of weeks and prior to that a giant twist i would try to clean everyday if needed if bike got wet then would always dry off everytime the way i see it is these bikes cost enough to buy new:eek: i would normally use a bike cleaning fluid and damp cloth. NIGEL
