How do you keep your cycling clothes in tip top shape? Most manufactures have washing instructions, but are generally very unclear on the types of detergents one should use. A few companies, such Rapha and Assos, make their own detergents. I have tried these, and they work well enough, but are over priced and difficult to come by. In the old days, I was told to use Woolite. Later I learned that's one of the worst things to wash your kit with. Most general purpose laundry soaps are not good either, as they tend to leave a residue and inhibit the wicking properties of synthetics. For the past several years I have been using a product made by Granger called "Active Wash". It is fantastic stuff, works very well, and is even good for washing my wool stuff. I highly recommend it.

Great recommendation, Robert. When I followed your link and tried to order I got, "On Fabsil, delivery restricted to mainland UK only." Where do you purchase the stuff?
Answer (should have googled) - $8.99/bottle(750 ml, about 25 washes) at Amazon.
Thanks - Karl
Sorry Karl, I forgot to mention that. Yes, I do buy it on Amazon. I linked to the companie's home page because it has the best information.
