"Have you seen Junior's grades?"
Yes, it is definitely easier with the wheel off the bike and the rotor off the wheel. I had my wheel off to replace the tire so it was a no brainer to remove the rotor and clean the wheel.Yeah, I tried that but I simply can't reach the hub on the side where the brake disc (excuse me, I mean brake satellite dish...) is. Not even with a Flitz polishing-ball-on-a-stick is there a good angle, not even right now when I have the entire rear fender off the bike. I have the bike up in the air, got a really nice Bahco lift that's the greatest thing since sliced bread...
The left-hand side is a doddle, nothing in the way there, but the brake disc is really in the way.
