Finish Line eight item bike cleaning kit review
Finish Line eight item bike cleaning kit costing a total of £39
Overall, the cost per item was disappointing and, aside from the degreaser, the performance was somewhat lacking, too.

Poor quality brush set
You can trust Cycling Weekly.
The five-piece brush kit is pretty good but sadly nowhere near as good as the Muc-Off kit.
The handles are quite shiny, making them difficult to grip with freezing cold, wet hands.
At £12.99 for just over a pint, the degreaser is as pricey as London lager but works well, either in a chain bath or with a brush. Both methods produce a sparkling clean finish.
The main cleaning spray is OK but, like the brushes, needed more effort to lift the dirt compared to Muc-Off, Ammo and Fenwick’s products.
