been thinking bout polishing my frame and sets but i live in an apartment complex and the wheather really gets to my bike even under its cover. any suggestions?

 

Clean it more often.

 

Yeah, even if you put your bike under a cover, you still get condensation forming under it & in some cases, getting more moisture where it ain't supposed to be. I have seen a few takes on the cover problem though, one with a small 12v motor that inflates the cover & draws out the moist air, but their usually a hassle & expensive way to go about the old problem. A good silicon spray will keep moisture at bay for a short while.

 

Do you live on the first floor? If so put it in the apartment.
