A trip to the mountains, a ride out of town or going to school or work: the **bicycle** has become an **indispensable** means of transport for **adults and children** of all ages. 

**To use it safely, prevent damage and avoid** bringing **dirt and mud** into the garage or shed, it should be **washed thoroughly and carefully**.

**Cleaning,** however, can **be time-consuming, tedious**, and sometimes **ineffective against stubborn dirt**.   
**A great tool** for cleaning your bike **quickly** after each use is a [**home high-pressure cleaner**](https://lavor.com/en/search/high-pressure-cleaners/), which effectively **removes** **all types of dirt**.

## Remove mud from your mountain bike using a high-pressure cleaner

**Outings to the mountains** are fun and a great opportunity to do sports and enjoy the fresh air, away from the chaos of the city. Likewise, commuting **to the office, going to school or running errands** in the city by bike reduces traffic while being environmentally friendly.

However you use it, **cleaning your bicycle** is important because:

- **Dust and dirt can damage it**, clogging the chain and ruining the frame with mud and micro-debris.
- It is important **not to take dirt and mud into the garage and shed or onto balconies**.
- We make things easier by not taking mud and dirt with us that weighs down the bicycle and makes us have to work harder.

**Sponges, water and detergent** are not always the best choice as they are **ineffective against stubborn dirt**, regardless of how much time and elbow grease you dedicate. The **simplest and most effective solution** is to **clean the bicycle with a high pressure cleaner**. The **pressure** of the jet **dissolves dried-on dirt**, allowing you to **save water, time** and avoiding the need to use large amounts of chemical detergents.

## How do you wash a bicycle with a high pressure cleaner?

**Cleaning your bike with a high pressure cleaner is quick and easy**. It saves you time and effort and achieves **great results time after time**. Compared to using a simple garden hose, when using a **home high pressure cleaner** it is recommended to take a few simple precautions to avoid damage or waste.

![Utilizzo alta pressione bici 1](https://blog.lavor.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Utilizzo%20alta%20pressione%20bici%201.jpg?width=800&name=Utilizzo%20alta%20pressione%20bici%201.jpg)

To **clean your bike with a high pressure cleaner you should**:

- Choose a model with an **adjustable jet**, to avoid damaging the surfaces with high pressure
- Place the bike on a **sturdy stand, against a wall or on the ground** so that the water jet will not knock it over
- Position yourself **at least 3 feet away** from the bike
- **Cover the electrical parts,** in the case of an *eBike*
- **Clear the surrounding area**, to avoid dirtying objects or other people with muddy water
- **Do not aim the jet directly or at close range towards delicate components** such as bearings and the gearbox area.

## A clean bike in 3 steps

Once the area has been prepared, **cleaning your bike will be really easy**. The numerous **accessories** **included** allow you to use the **same tool for the various surfaces** of your bike, avoiding the need to use tubes, sponges and other products.

![NIbali 1](https://blog.lavor.com/hs-fs/hubfs/NIbali%201.jpg?width=800&name=NIbali%201.jpg)

To **wash your bike with a high pressure cleaner**:

1. Start by **cleaning the wheels, saddle and frame with water using a flat jet nozzle**. This will remove surface dirt and moisten the dried-on mud. Pay particular attention to the hubs, gears, brake levers, gear shifters and handlebars, which are more delicate parts
2. Use **detergent to thoroughly clean and sanitise your bike**, by attaching the **adjustable foam lance** to the gun of the pressure cleaner, which will prevent unnecessary waste
3. Lastly, **rinse and remove stubborn dirt using a brush**. If necessary, use the **needle jet of the high-pressure lance** at close range to apply greater pressure on any **dirt stuck in the wheel treads**.

You can also **remove dirt from the surface of the cleaning area** just as quickly.
