When you see a race bike shine before a descent or sparkle across the finish line, there’s more than just cleaning behind it. There’s method. Precision. Care. This is what we call the Sprayke Method: the daily routine our professional teams follow to keep their bikes in peak condition.
Because every second counts. Every component must work perfectly. And every detail can make the difference between a good result and a memorable race.
1. The bike is cleaned after every ride
Whether it’s mud, dust, or just sweat, our team bikes never go to sleep dirty. Every return is a chance to begin the care ritual:
- A quick rinse with water
- Application of the specific Sprayke cleaner (eco-friendly, effective, gentle)
- Careful drying with microfiber cloths
2. Start with the details, leave nothing to chance
The team focuses first on the most critical areas:
- Headset
- Bottom bracket
- Seatpost and stem
These are the spots where sweat and sand build up—silent enemies of longevity and performance.
3. Visual and tactile inspection
Hands glide over components. Eyes search for halos, streaks, marks. A rusty bolt, a whitish halo, a squeaky chain—each is a red flag.
This is where Sprayke proves its worth: protecting, cleaning, and extending your bike’s life.
4. Smart lubrication (as used by our teams)
In the race paddocks, when time is tight and the bike must be perfect, every choice matters. Sprayke teams don’t improvise: they use the right products at the right moment. Here’s how our lubricants are integrated into the team routine:
- Lube 1
Used before every standard training session or race on mixed terrain. It’s the go-to base lubricant: it protects, lubricates, resists dust and wear without attracting too much grime.
When? Before rides in dry or variable conditions, on flow trails, technical climbs, or long gravel routes. - Lube 2
The perfect companion on rainy and muddy days. When the chain is exposed to water, sand, and debris, Lube 2 kicks in with high adhesion and anti-corrosion protection.
When? During muddy races, winter trails, or rainy marathons. The team standard for “wet” stages. - Special Lube
The fast but precise solution, perfect for pre-race touch-ups or quick checks between stages. In spray form, it reaches every corner cleanly.
When? Right before the start to ensure extra smoothness or for a quick refresh between enduro stages. - Suspension Lubricant
One spray and the bike “breathes better.” Used by mechanics on forks, shocks, and dropper posts to keep them smooth, responsive, and protected from dirt.
When? Before every gravity ride or long adventure where dropper use is frequent. You can feel the difference immediately. - PK – Multipurpose 7-in-1
The team’s go-to all-rounder. Perfect for loosening stuck bolts, protecting components, removing moisture, and lubricating secondary parts.
When? In critical moments: in the workshop, at the end of the day, or during travel. The mechanic always has one in the toolkit.
This isn’t theory—it’s exactly what our athletes use on race weekends, recon days, and daily training.
Want a bike that follows you everywhere? Treat it like a pro.
