Mud protection?

[Motozulu]

Really though? I've been jetwashing my mtb's for years with no discernible ill effects. Am I gonna die? (well yes obviously. Same as if I'd never used a jet wash.)

Contrary to what some folk seem to believe, every time someone judiciously jet washes an mtb neither a kitten nor a bottom bracket or a wheel bearing or a transmission dies.

Just going off what the dealer told me - he seems to know his stuff.

Perhaps he thinks his customers are stupid or inexperienced and can't be trusted to use a jet wash properly to clean their mtb's

As much as I don't like that thought - you may well be right.

Fret not, it is sound advice.

Have no doubt about it, if you don't know what you're doing with one a garage forecourt industrial jet wash of the 'wrestling an angry snake variety', can wreck seals and bearings in seconds.

(I doubt the average Karcher home jobbie can though.)
