The best ways to clean leather bike products
Cycling in autumn is awesome! Pleasant weather and cool, fresh air make bike rides even more enjoyable. It’s a beautiful time of year to enjoy cycling and get inspired by nature’s vibrant beauty as leaves change from green to gold. But once you venture out, your bike products are sure to take a beating.
It might get a bit wetter, so you may be worried about your leather bike products, like your saddle bags, panniers, and handlebar bags. But don’t let this put the brakes on your plans. Using a good-quality leather cleaner on your leather bike accessories makes sure they stay in peak condition no matter the weather.
Simple steps to follow after every ride
When you’re cycling, dust, moisture, and other external elements can affect the overall look of your leather goods. You can bring your saddlebags, pannier bags, and handlebar bags back to life with a little daily care.
Do’s
• Use a slightly damp soft cloth to wipe your leather accessories to remove any dust or dirt.
• Remove stains or marks by rubbing the area with a cloth or sponge then let your item air dry.
• Use a dry white cloth to blot areas with oil-based spots.
• If your leather product is a bit greasy, rub it using a clean, dry cotton cloth. If it’s sunny outside, place your bag in the sun to reduce grease on it.
• Rub scouring powder on dirty studs on your bike bags using a damp cotton swab.
• Use a good-quality leather cleaner on your bike products so they’ll be protected for years to come.
Don’ts
• Never use saddle soap, oils, hairdryers, abrasive cleaners, varnish, or furniture polish to clean leather accessories.
• Never apply water to oil-based spots.
