Cleaning your bike with wet wipes

[Slick]

But what do you use on the bike?

Jet wash.

and Huggies are my favourite brand

Too soft for me (I should have guessed the packet says 'Soft Touch') and you couldn't thread them through anything without them breaking maybe their other types are not as bad but I doubt I'll be finding out. They were really good for cleaning the rims though :-/

I use floor cleaning wipes - bit sturdier than baby wipes.

Pampers for me. Sensitive ones make the bike smell lush

Huggies Pure for me, use them on all family bike (there are 7 in the garage). Used to be a water and cloth person, but have moved on.

Work great on the frame and good for mickling the chain. Routine when I get to work is to wipe frame down, clean rims/spokes/cranks/brake/guards/tyres and mickle the chain if required. Depending on how dirty things this will need 1-4 wipes, and take 2-10 minutes, they're great at removing and holding onto the dirt, and removing oil from where it shouldn't be.

I founds the waterwipe brand great, they're literally water wipes with a little citric acid and it destroys the grime.

I still use a bucket if hot soapy water and I will use a hose with a misting head on it I wouldn't jet wash a bike, the wipes are for the hard to reach areas.

Just watch baby wipes, just because it has 'baby' in the title it does not make them cute and cuddly lol, the oils in the wipes will do some serious damage to leather interiors of cars and your leather sofa in the living room. Other than that they do a cracking job on cleaning !

This advice does not work in reverse. I tried cleaning my bum with GT85 and keep slipping off the saddle !

The baby wipes failed to remove the greasy dangleberries from my arriss.

Baby wipes are rubbish. They're rubbish at cleaning babies, they're rubbish at cleaning bikes, and then when dirty they're just rubbish.

Jetwash works fine for both.

Jetwash would be better, as @MichaelW2 posits above. Although perhaps not on the front drive.
