Muc-Off Chain Doc and Chain Cleaner
Chains accumulate a lot of dirt and grime which, if ignored, turns into a very costly grinding paste particularly on multi-geared derailleur systems. Cleaning kits of this kind are not a new idea, although this seems to be one of the better designs. A chain bath clamps to the chain cleaner aerosol and a flexible hose feeds from the nozzle, directing solvent into the reservoir.

Muc-Off Optix Pack
This year's braveheart ride was muddy. or at least parts of it were, along
with masses of isle of wight ferry* all over the farm roads. the only
cyclists who were spared the mess all over clothes and glasses were
sean kelly and brian smith, and that only because they suffered mechanicals
within a very short distance. and having spent about forty five minutes today
cleaning the dried-in gloop off the company colnago, it's perhaps not that
surprising that the rudy projects suffered a similar fate.
However, cleaning crud off a carbon frame with a sponge and soapy water,
is not quite the technique you want when attempting to shine precision
optics suffering a thin film of the brown opaque stuff. in my case,
this is even more of a kid gloves operation because the rudys have the rx
clip-in insert so that i can actually see where i'm going. scratches i do
not want, because as time moves along, these are only going to get more numerous.
However, a solution (pardon the pun) is at hand from x-lite sub company,
muc-off, in the shape of their optix pack. this cleverly consists of
a neat hard plastic, zipped case containing a small spray bottle of
lens cleaner and a particularly generous, soft cleaning cloth along and an
instruction card. there's a plastic tagged, muc-off monogrammed zip that
ought to be easy enough to open even with gloved hands, and a clip hook (carabiner)
on the back to allow affixing to a belt or rucksack loop. the container
does not open fully, but has elastic mini straps holding front and back
together, thus stopping those potentially awkward moments when you
unzip and everything falls into the mud/road/water/whatever.
The biodegradable cleaning solution is applied to the lenses by a pump action
spray from the 35ml bottle (refills are available) then polished to
a streak-free finish with the soft black cloth. on this occasion, the
cleaning power and lack of streaks was so impressive, that i cleaned my regular
specs as well. it's amazing what you can see with clean lenses. recommended
price is £:11.99
which is probably a heck of a lot less than you paid for the 'bins'
in the first place.
Unreservedly recommended - does exactly what it says on the box.

Bike Spray
MBUK Verdict 10/10 Exceptional, you won't find a better one than this. A great rust stopper; should be in every rider's tool kit
“After you've washed your bike, it's a good idea to flush out any collected areas of water. Luckily, X-Lite now produces this Bike Spray-a water dispersal fluid designed for all parts of your bike (except braking surfaces, of course).
The PTFE (Teflon) spray is very effective and particularly good for stopping rust in vulnerable areas such as chains, cassettes and bolt heads. The spray also works well as a polish and helps prevent mud from gathering on your frame. To top all that, it's also excellent value at £5.99 for 500ml.”
