Dirt Bike Rim Corrosion at Jeanette Charlie blog

Dirt Bike Rim Corrosion. Aluminum wheels naturally oxidize over time, leaving them susceptible to dirt buildup and damage and in need of a good cleaning. It looks like it has significant corrosion. I am fairly new to dirt bikes and have what i think is weird, but maybe isn't, issue with the rear rim. Use a soft brush to scrub the wheels gently, then rinse and dry them thoroughly. Other buildups, such as corrosive brake dust, can compromise the integrity of your wheels as well. I remove the rim strip and use a good wire brush to gently remove any corrosion (water gets in through the nipple holes) then use. Cleaning your aluminum wheels, however, is relatively simple. One especially gnarly area is right where the valve. The inside surface of my cr's rear rim is pitted and flaky in a couple of locations. Be sure to check the outside of your rim for any rust or corrosion around the surface and use a wire brush (if necessary) to remove it before continuing with disassembly. There are various chemicals you can put on the rim to prevent moisture from getting on the surface but they might deteriorate the rubber.
