I have a beautiful set of HED Ardenne + wheels on my Ritchey which have copped it after a lazy few months with me not cleaning the bike enough. The white decals on the wheels are now filthy. I'm swapping tyres this weekend and will be doing a full wheel off bike clean at the same time.
Does anyone have any tips for cleaning road grime and flicked off chain grease from wheels?

Try Rock'n'Roll Miracle Red.
I used it and it's good to remove grease and you can add water to dilute it.
