[RBW] Rust proof question
Maybe a dumb question... Is it a terrible idea to spray some rustproofing material into a fully built bike or should it be done on a bare frame? Are there any methods or products that folks find to be best? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Rust proof question
I usually pull the wheels, bottom bracket, seat post and fork out and spray away then give it a few minutes of gentle twirling. Like a beautiful lugged baton. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Rust proof question
Can’t see any reason why you would need to take everything off the frame, other than to remove the headset, seat post, and bottom bracket in order to get to the insides of the frame tubes. --Eric Norris campyonly...@me.com @CampyOnlyguy (Twitter/Instagram) > On Nov 10, 2018, at 2:38 PM, Andrew Huston > wrote: > > Maybe a dumb question... > Is it a terrible idea to spray some rustproofing material into a fully built > bike or should it be done on a bare frame?

Re: [RBW] Rust proof question
Framesaver-ing a built up bike is hard since access to the tubes (those vent holes really won't do it) is obstructed and used to risk contamination of BB and HS bearings (back when they were cup and ball) if left in place. You do have to get the straw into the stays, top tube and head tube to spray. Dropping the fork, pulling the seat post and removing the BB open that access. The nice part about cartridge bearing BBs and HSs is that doing these three things to permit spraying your frame's insides isn't as complicated as it was back during the cup and loose ball paradigm. If you have an LBS you trust, perhaps they would help in the process.
