Is there really a point of using bike-protection-spray?

As long as you lube right, dry the bike, and dont blast water into bearings the bike shold be ok, or?

And the muc-off spray. OK on carbon? and suspenstion fork, or spesfic spray for those things?

  • No one has any opinion?

    On a scale from 1-10.. (10 is critical).... where will you put usage of Bikeprotetcion-spray...

    Both aluminium and carbon... and on handlebars... and places where you want to "force" out water. (krank, gear etc)

    What it does is help get the bugs and crap off at the next wash. Personally, I use WD40 sprayed onto a cloth and wipe the bike down. Matt frame too.
    I ride a bike. Doesn't make me green or a tree hugger. I drive a car too.

    Well stop wasting your money then. As I said, it isn't supposed to stop them getting dirty. It makes it easier to clean them afterwards.

    I don't spray anything randomly on my bikes. Clean as needed, lube specifically as required.
