Keep Bicycles Looking and Running Great With Finish Line Technology's New Pro Care Bucket Kits

BAY SHORE, N.Y., Nov 03, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- The new Pro Care Bucket Kits are for cycling enthusiasts, serious riders and do-it-yourselfers who want to keep their bicycles riding and looking like new.

Complete with an instructive maintenance guide, the kits from bicycle care company Finish Line Technologies, Inc., include bike wash, chain cleaner, chain lubricants, specialized grease and cleaning brushes.

"This kit is a lot of fun for anyone who enjoys cycling and wants to know a little more about how to make their bicycle run better," said Hank Krause, president of Finish Line Technologies, Inc.

"You can use it to help refurbish an old bicycle or keep a new one in top shape.

There's a guide explaining basic maintenance, and we've also included our website address (www.finishlineusa.com) where there are step-by-step videos," says Krause.

Dirty chains and drive trains make cycling harder. Dirt and grime also act like sandpaper wearing down expensive components.

The kit's Multi-Degreaser cleans chains and drive trains. Finish Line Technologies included its best-selling lubricant, Teflon(R) DRY Lube, for use on the chain, derailleurs, and brake and shifter pivots. For those intimidated by the jargon, the maintenance guide explains it all! A shiny bike looks great, but Super Bike Wash also has rust and oxidation inhibitors that protect metal surfaces from rusting. It's a complex bio-cleaning compound that quickly cleans dirt, clay, road grime and chain soils with little or no scrubbing. Plus, it's fully biodegradable and non-toxic, so it won't harm the environment.

To make cleaning easier, the compact bristles of Finish Line's Grunge Brush reach all four sides of a chain, helping prevent premature wear and eliminate chain skipping caused by dirt and grunge.

Contained in a water-tight, child-resistant, storage bucket that doubles as a wash basin, the kits are available in bicycle shops throughout North America.

They come in two configurations, 6.0 and 8.0, (that retail for $49.99 and $69.99).
