Post-ride cleaning shouldn't require a chemistry degree or a hazmat suit. Stan's NoTubes addresses both concerns with the Biobased Bike Wash, a 1000ml spray bottle that cuts through trail grime, road film, and general bike funk using a 100% biodegradable formula free of VOCs and phosphates. The cleaning agents come from organic ingredients rather than petroleum derivatives, which means you can spray down your bike without worrying about what's running off into the grass or soaking into your skin.

The formula was developed by Whistler Performance Labs in British Columbia, where bikes accumulate the kind of mud, dust, and organic debris that tests any cleaner's limits. Stan's engineered this wash to handle that reality while remaining non-corrosive to the materials that make up modern bicycles. Carbon fiber frames, anodized components, titanium hardware, steel tubing, aluminum parts, rubber seals, and plastic housings all tolerate the formula without degradation or discoloration. That material compatibility extends to sensitive areas like disc brake rotors and pads, where residue from conventional cleaners can compromise braking performance.

Application works through the spray trigger, which delivers enough pressure to penetrate into tight spaces around derailleur pulleys, cassette cogs, and brake calipers without requiring aggressive scrubbing. The formula lifts dirt and grime on contact, letting you rinse away accumulated filth rather than grinding it into your finish with a brush. For stubborn buildup, a second application and brief dwell time handles most situations.... Read More
