Today, the weather was pretty nice, and I had an hour to kill while I was waiting for a friend to drop in, so I decided to clean up the bike a little.
I put on a bit of chain wax, did a little soap and water, etc. I also put a little tire shine on the side walls of the tires (not in the middle of the tread). I never tried tire shine before for my bike, because I never really thought it was that good of an idea. When I took the bike out later this afternoon, I naturally took it really easy with leaning/ speed. Surprisingly, the tire shine didn't feel that slick.
Anyone else have similar experiences? Or do you guys just avoid tire shine altogether?
