Technology: make your aluminum frame like new again
Many motocross riders ride a motorcycle equipped with an aluminum frame. The Japanese manufacturers opt for this type of frame, while KTM, Husqvarna and now also GasGas opt for frames made of chrome-molybdenum steel. Many hobby riders ride their dirt bikes for several years and that is why an aluminum frame looks tired over time.
In the video you see how a frame is completely cleaned and brought back to life with very few resources. What do you need? Lots of water, strong all-purpose cleaner, acidic wheel cleaner, some brushes, a Scotch-Brite scrubbing pad and patience!
