POOLE 15.04.2024 — Muc-Off, the global leader in bicycle care is pumped to announce the launch of its latest World's first innovation: The Mobile Bike Pressure Washer. Designed specifically for bikes with built in Snow Foam capability, this mobile washer is the ultimate weapon for keeping your bike looking sharp and running smooth no matter where your adventure takes you. This is now the serious choice for serious outdoor adventurers.
In 2018, Muc-Off launched the World’s first pressure washer designed specifically for bikes. Compact, convenient, and safe on bearings and seals, it set and remains the benchmark in bike cleaning. Fast forward six years and outdoor adventurers have been missing that class leading performance when they’re out, and without access to power or water. To date, the market mainly only offers low powered, low spec’d units that just don’t hit the performance mark. To raise the bar, Muc-Off has meticulously engineered the Mobile Pressure Washer to meet the unique needs of riders for their outdoor adventures. With its compact, mobile design and cutting-edge features, it sets a new standard for riders who demand the ultimate in bike cleaning performance, convenience, and efficiency, anywhere, anytime.
The performance stats vs market norms are impressive; Max Power is 71% higher. Water Pressure is 201% higher at 942.5psi, and running time is dialled to the max – it’s the only unit with an Eco Mode offering 24 minutes of continuous cleaning time.
Whilst many units are still using 12v batteries, Muc-Off's unit is powered by a whopping 40v, 2.5Ah 90Wh lithium-Ion battery (fully rechargeable in under 4 hours), which drives a 500w brushless motor. Plus, it boasts an impressive 20L integrated water tank with integrated water filter. The unit comes equipped with an innovative Snow Foam lance which swiftly connects to a bottle of Muc-Off Nanotech Bike Cleaner, overcoming the messy process of filling small bottle attachments, creating a highly effective Snow Foam layer that breaks dirt down at a molecular level. Paired with its mobility creds, there’s finally a way to have a truly mobile Snow Foam enabled pressure washer.
The technology is all housed safely in an IPX5 rated protective casing. Designed to deal with the rigours of an active outdoor lifestyle, and weighing in at just 7.66kg, it’s lightweight enough to take along on any adventure. It comes equipped with 4 lances to help cover all eventualities. Riders will have the option of purchasing a range of additional extras, including further batteries and charging units, an additional 20L Water Tank which doubles the available water supply, and a 65L Dry Bag Mobile Holdall, which can be used either as a carrier for the Mobile Pressure Washer and accessories, or for dry storage of any other equipment and adventure essentials.
“Back in 2018, we created the World’s first bike specific Pressure Washer, and now, we have taken it mobile. The market lacked a high performance, complete package solution for designed for bikes. Our response? Design and build one with the added advantage of real Snow Foam capability that’s truly mobile. We are stoked with the results and we’re sure all outdoor adventurers will be too.” Alex Trimnell, CEO of Muc-Off.
Unlike others on the market which require manual handling, real mobility is at the core of the Muc-Off Mobile Pressure Washer’s design. The unit features a fold-down towing handle, grab handle, and four wheels, including rear wheels optimised for rough terrain – so serious levels of mobility have been built in. Real attention to detail can be seen throughout the washer, with simple quick-connect accessories for ease of use, a self-priming function for speed, a high-pressure 5m hose for optimum utility, and dual pressure modes (Boost/Eco) to help preserve battery life. Every feature has been carefully designed and developed for riders, by riders, to ensure it delivers the cleaning experience serious outdoor adventurers need.
The Mobile Pressure Washer is initially launching in five different bundle options, priced from £250 / €275 for the standalone Mobile Pressure Washer plus a 1L bottle of Nanotech Bike Cleaner; ranging up to £425 / €450 for the ‘Ultimate Bundle’, which includes the Mobile Pressure Washer, 65L Dry Bag Mobile Holdall, additional 20L Water Tank, additional battery, 1L bottle of Nanotech Bike Cleaner, plus a 1L bottle of Nanotech Bike Cleaner Concentrate. The optional additional products include a 20L Water Tank is priced at £40 / €50, 65L Dry Bag Mobile Holdall (£125 / €150), Additional Battery (£60 / €70, and Additional Chargers (£10 / €15).

ABOUT MUC-OFF:
Back in 1991 Rex and Marilyn Trimnell got things started with X-Lite UK. After designing and manufacturing the world’s first twin crown bicycle fork, Rex created a perfectly pink spray to clean his kit. To cut a long story short, Rex’s cleaner was the best thing since sliced bread, and it wasn’t long before word got out and Muc-Off was born.
Fast-forward to now and Muc-Off is the go-to brand for top riders. And, in case you haven’t noticed, we do a bit more than our original pink cleaner these days.
