      Just a review on all hope components as I was very interested in the small covers I never even new they made them

    Graham, thinking of trying out your favourite Squirt - would you degrease the existing chain etc first, or just change over to Squirt? I use Finish Line wet throughout the year - seems to be do the job. (I noticed on Hope’s video, they use 3-in-1 on the new hub ratchet ring. That’ll upset a few people.🙂)

      Hi Robert, if you chains mucky with oil then yes give it a clean off, then Squirt away. As for 3- in 1. I guess any light oil will do. Less drag than grease

    Very interesting and therapautic to watch the fresh grease being applied Graham. How often should we be doing a service like this?

    • @GrahamFootBicycleLover
      @GrahamFootBicycleLover  ปีที่แล้ว

      Get asked that all the time. 6 months? As always, depends on use, conditions and how you clean your bike

      if you spray your pride and joy with degreasers and cleaning products a lot sooner.
