How to wash a bike properly?

To wash a bike properly, start by rinsing it with water to remove loose dirt and debris. Use a mild detergent or bike-specific cleaner to scrub the frame, wheels, and components with a soft brush or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a towel. Lubricate the chain and moving parts with bike-specific lubricant. Avoid using high-pressure water or harsh chemicals that can damage the bike's components.
